Aging Male
​
The concept of treating an aging male collectively brings in a new era both from preventive and therapeutic aspect. In this concept, the role of Testosterone (hormones) has been elaborated. These hormones are just not responsible for sex drive and sexual performance but they also help build protein, keep the bones strong, and play a role in metabolic activities. This concept could elaborate multi specialty problems in aging male. This may reflect as sexual dysfunction, enlargement of prostate, cancer of prostate, osteoporosis, phylogenic depression, cardiac dysfunctions.

Give Aging men a chance
Aging is inevitable but graceful aging and accepting certain problems and preventing others has become an important part in the management of aging population.
​
Our goal is to ensure that the specific health needs of Men are given greater attention than ever before, specially for the following reasons. These are also the facts, which make health professionals all over the world speak of a "crisis in men's health":
​
-
Male life expectancy is unnecessarily low and too many men die too young from preventable causes.
-
The incidence of men's disease (CA prostate and testicular cancer) is rapidly increasing.
-
Men are especially at risk for suicide, yet male depression remains under-diagnosed and under treated.
-
Sexual health problems (including Erectile Dysfunction) are common.
-
Health services have been slow to respond to men's health needs. Little has been done to encourage and enable men to access overall services more quickly and effectively.
