B12K Stories : What’s Andropause ?
Aug 27th
Do you know what the word Andropause means ? … This is not the name of Star Trek’s new spaceship, okay go for another try!  No this it is not the new album of black eyed peas either
go ahead another time… ahhhh, well tried, but no, it is not the title of a new Schwarzenegger movie!
So you have no idea I think , okay let me explain, Â it is the male equivalent of menopause! Men of a certain age, between 40 and 50 years, begin to feel a hormonal imbalance, like women, and this disruption causes a lot of trouble that can make your life an unbearable mess !

Let me explain how, well it’s easy, a hormone is like a key, it’s made somewhere in the body, and serves to activate a feature somewhere else in the body , if the production of a hormone    decreases or disappears, the body will no longer work as it should and can face a bunch of little inconvenience as ….. I can  hear the little smart guy reading my article saying : This guy is now explaining  the word of the day he has heard on radio! I will simply answer, yes
 of course we’re here to learn from each other , no ?
.
In fact, I suffer from the consequences of Andropause
, which is wrecking my boss, Â we call him affectionately the Minotaur (check on Wikipedia what Minotaur means
) , and if you have the chance ( or the misfortune )to be under his directives , you’ll see how a hormonal disorder like that can cause damage to a person, and how it’s making the life difficult to us , it’s employees , or in other words the little small creatures that are at his mercy!
This thesis was confirmed by Ted (you know him, it’s Mandy’s brother, he’s a doctor) and he also added that scientists have just discovered a hormone replacement treatment, which consists in  restoring the body’s  hormones level and allow it to work again normally.

And there it is! Problem identified and analyzed, solution set , the thing that remains difficult is to find the one who has enough courage to make an allusion to the Minotaur about his problem , the  one who will find the way to  convince him to see a doctor and undergo  a hormone replacement therapy. We still hesitate, but probably the short straw will indicate the victim!
