Manopause deserves the same attention and consideration as women’s menopause due to its potential to give rise to sexual, physical, and psychological challenges, which tend to intensify with age. Additional symptoms associated with manopause may include:

• Erectile dysfunction
• Low energy levels
• Reduced muscle mass leads to feelings of weakness
• Diminished motivation
• Increased frequency of urination, especially at night
• Decreased libido
• Depression
• Fatigue
• Difficulty concentrating
• Insomnia or sleep disturbances
• Heightened irritability
• Premature hair loss
• Development of breast tissue
• Reduced testicle size
• Elevated body fat levels

In rarer cases, individuals may experience hot flashes, and there is also a potential risk of osteoporosis due to decreased bone density.

Testosterone, the hormone that drives transformations during male puberty, fuels mental and physical vigour, supports muscle growth, influences fight or flight responses, and governs sex drive and libido, among other critical functions. All of these attributes are underpinned by testosterone, marking the commencement of the testosterone journey.

As testosterone levels decrease, so does a man’s libido, and additional complications may arise. It’s important to note that male manopause differs from women’s menopause. In women, the decline in hormone levels leads to the eventual cessation of reproductive organ function. Conversely, manopause typically manifests as sexual complications stemming from reduced hormone levels. This phase can signify the initiation of the conclusion of the testosterone journey.

At Lewtress, we offer supplements such as the renowned Tongkat Ali and Tribulus Terrestris, known for their ability to stimulate the natural production of testosterone. Specifically, Tongkat Ali supplements mitigate the ageing effects on the male reproductive system by enhancing the body’s free testosterone bioavailability. It not only boosts energy levels but also supports the maintenance of healthy testosterone levels, vitality, sex drive, as well as robust blood circulation.
