Male menopause, often called andropause, is real, but it does not mirror menopause in women. Instead of a sudden shutdown, men usually experience a slow testosterone decline across decades. The effects can feel vague at first: lower energy, less drive, weaker workouts, more belly fat. Because these low testosterone symptoms overlap with “normal aging,” many men never get evaluated. Dr. Gustav Lo a hormone and longevity specialist, talks openly with 'Pause host Val Lego about hormone health in midlife as a practical first step, not a vanity project.
