Of course, people are susceptible to various diseases at any age. Men who have crossed the threshold at the age of 45 tend to have the same set of problems.
More than 50% of the stronger half have erectile dysfunction at this age. Many factors affect male strength, including stress, poor nutrition, irregular sex life, bad habits, high blood pressure, and atherosclerosis. Often, a man, faced with a problem, is afraid to admit even to himself its existence, postpones going to the doctor, thereby aggravating the situation. If you begin to notice any disorders of sexual function, we strongly advise you not to delay the examination and seek help in a timely manner.
Prostatitis is another disease of men after 45 years of age. The causes of inflammation are the same as those that cause erectile dysfunction. Our experts advise not to wait for the disease to manifest itself, but to undergo a medical examination at least once a year and take the necessary tests. The peculiarity of the disease is that it can go on without symptoms for a long time, so there is a high risk of starting it. In the later stages, it will be much more difficult and longer to treat prostatitis. In addition, the disease can cause prostate cancer, which is most common in men of this particular age group. Prostate adenoma is another common cause of prostatitis. It is a benign neoplasm and requires surgical intervention. Prostate adenoma is one of the most common diseases in men over 45 years of age. It is found in 60% of cases at the age of 60, and in 90% of cases over the age of 80. To prevent such serious complications as lack of urination, the development of infections, the formation of stones in the kidneys and urinary tract, infertility, and malignant tumors, it is necessary to consult a urologist in a timely manner when the first symptoms appear.

Diseases of the cardiovascular system.
The most common diseases are hypertension, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction and stroke. Atherosclerosis (by the way, the most common cause of heart attack) affects men aged 40-45 years. Large vessels suffer the most, they are at risk of blood clots, plaques, obstructed blood flow and blockage. Myocardial infarction is insidious because it does not give any symptoms until the last moment. Therefore, in this case, prevention is the best treatment. A stroke is a lesion of the cerebral vessels. It is caused by all the same problems with blood vessels, as well as increased intracranial pressure (hypertension).
Recommendations: after the age of 40, men should definitely undergo an annual examination and do an ECG, even if nothing bothers them.

Diseases of joints and bones.
Did you know that almost only men suffer from gout? Those who lead a sedentary lifestyle, indulge in pleasant but deadly habits, and eat delicious but unhealthy food are especially susceptible. This disease is often accompanied by diabetes, hypertension, and elevated levels of harmful cholesterol. Gout can cause severe kidney dysfunction. With gout, an excess of uric acid salts forms in the body, which affect the joints. The development of the disease is influenced by both genetic factors and lifestyle. For prevention, you need to give up alcohol, follow a diet, and monitor uric acid levels in your blood.
Solution: timely examination and detection of pathology. Anyone who wants to make an appointment for a consultation and blood tests can call our center and make an appointment at +1 619 901-5041 (WhatsApp).
Age—related androgen deficiency (ADAM, male menopause, age-related hypogonadism) is a syndrome caused by an age-related decrease in testosterone levels in the blood. The following types of ADAM are distinguished: 1. Relative — androgen levels are within the normal range (more than 12 nmol/L). The increase in blood pressure is due to a decrease in androgen levels relative to previous years. Absolute — the level of sex hormones is less than normal and is less than 12 nmol / l. In men's menopause, unlike in women, there is no pronounced decrease in androgen production, and therefore the age of occurrence of ADAM can vary from 35 to 70 years.
Timely diagnosis and treatment of men's menopause helps not only to get rid of the unpleasant symptoms of the disease, but also to prevent the development of negative consequences: depression, osteoporosis, metabolic disorders, etc. In addition, therapy helps to maintain sexual function, which is very important for a man's well-being.
