As we age, our hormone levels naturally decline. This is known as hormone decline or hormonal aging. The major hormones that decline are testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, DHEA, melatonin, and human growth hormone.
Hormone decline can start as early as our 20s and 30s. It accelerates in our 40s and beyond. Both men and women experience hormone decline, but it often manifests differently.
For women, declining estrogen levels lead to symptoms like hot flashes, vaginal dryness, trouble sleeping, and emotional changes. Lower progesterone can cause irregular periods. Loss of both hormones results in menopause around age 50.
In men, testosterone decline causes fatigue, loss of muscle mass, weight gain, low libido, erectile dysfunction, and mood changes. This is known as andropause or male menopause.
Other key effects of hormone decline include:
The good news? Hormone decline is treatable in both men and women. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can help restore optimal hormone levels.
