I don't know when my father's arms will no longer be strong, and his muscles will become loose and flaccid; The eyes no longer sparkle with confidence; He started to lose his temper, and everything that didn't suit him slightly would make him argue like hell
In fact, Dad became like this because he entered the male menopause. However, his menopause comes later than his mother's, usually occurring between the ages of 55 and 64, and the process is slow, so many children tend to overlook their changes.
Let's get to know men's menopause together.
Skin no longer firm
As men reach menopause, the gradual reduction of fat and elastic tissue can lead to skin aging. First, wrinkles begin to appear on the face, and then the skin on the neck and hands and feet also becomes loose and sagging. This is the earliest manifestation of male menopause.
The heartbeat is no longer strong and powerful
As people grow older, cardiac connective tissue increases, plasma lipid deposits, and calcification of heart valves and other structures are likely to lead to cardiac hypertrophy and endocardium thickening. At the same time, as the elasticity of blood vessels deteriorates and hardens, vascular problems such as arteriosclerosis and narrowing may also occur one after another.
The spirit is no longer full
Aging of the nervous system is the root cause of changes in male menopausal behavior. The number of nerve cells, nerve fibers, and sensory organ cells in the nervous system gradually decreases, leading to susceptibility to neurosis, often accompanied by psychological and neurological symptoms such as depression, memory loss, insomnia, and lack of confidence.
Bones no longer strong
For men between 55 and 65 years old, the aging of skeletal tissue will be accelerated, and the spongy pores in the skeleton will increase, so the skeleton will become fragile and can not be moved and squeezed excessively. It is also prone to osteomalacia, atrophy of intercostal muscle, and even hunchback.
How does a man maintain good health and strengthen his foundation during menopause?
Healthy diet
Menopausal men often experience symptoms such as dizziness, insomnia, and emotional fluctuations. Eating foods rich in vitamin B can help improve these symptoms. At the same time, it is important to avoid stimulating foods and limit daily salt intake.
During menopause, preventing aging of the nervous system and maintaining normal cardiovascular function are of utmost importance. Choosing some food with the function of nourishing the heart and calming the nerves will help improve the function of the nervous system and cardiovascular system, such as yam, walnut, jujube, mulberry, tuckahoe, ass hide glue, ganoderma lucidum, etc.
Optimistic mindset
Men during menopause are often subjected to dual pressures from family and work, which can easily lead to negative emotions. At this point, learning to maintain an optimistic mindset and finding suitable ways to vent one's emotions is beneficial for relieving stress.
Daily exercise
At the age of menopause, men often neglect exercising and only move their bodies on impulse. But it should be remembered that during menopause, men should develop a habit of daily exercise, use exercise to enhance their physical fitness, and prevent diseases. This is essential for maintaining health.
Regularization of physical examination
Most people have insufficient understanding of the importance of physical examinations, but in fact, regular physical examinations are the best way to ensure health. After men enter menopause, regular physical examinations are necessary to promptly detect and adjust their physical functions.
