Introduction
As men age, gradual changes occur in reproductive function, hormone levels, and sexual performance. Preventive andrology focuses on maintaining health, functionality, and quality of life through early detection and proactive management of age-related changes.
Age-Related Changes in Male Health
Common age-related changes include declining testosterone levels, reduced sperm quality, prostate enlargement, and increased prevalence of erectile dysfunction. These changes often coexist with chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disorders and metabolic syndrome.
Preventive Strategies in Andrology
Preventive andrological care includes routine health screening, hormonal evaluation, prostate assessment, cardiovascular risk management, regular physical activity, balanced nutrition, stress reduction, and mental health support. Patient education plays a vital role in long-term health preservation.
Holistic and Preventive Approach
Modern andrology integrates physical, psychological, erotic activity and social aspects of health. This holistic model promotes longevity, independence, and sustained well-being.
Conclusion
Preventive andrology is essential for lifelong men’s health. Through early intervention and comprehensive care, andrology enables men to age with vitality, dignity, and optimal quality of life.
