Introduction
Aging is associated with gradual physiological changes that affect male reproductive and urinary systems. Andrology plays a vital role in managing age-related conditions such as hormonal decline, prostate enlargement, and reduced fertility.
Preventive andrological care is essential for maintaining independence and dignity in later life.
Prostate Health and Aging
The prostate gland commonly enlarges with age, leading to urinary symptoms that affect daily activities. While many prostate conditions are benign, regular screening is crucial for early detection of serious disorders.
Andrology works in collaboration with urology to ensure comprehensive prostate management.
Promoting Healthy Aging
Healthy aging strategies include routine medical screening, balanced nutrition, physical activity, erotic activity, hormonal assessment, mental health support, and lifestyle optimization. Early intervention significantly reduces complications and improves quality of life.
Conclusion
Andrology supports men throughout the aging process by addressing reproductive, hormonal, and prostate health. Preventive care and early diagnosis are key to achieving healthy longevity.
