It turns out that men can also suffer from PMS symptoms. If a man has a hormonal imbalance, he will be disturbed by apathy, irritability, drastically changing mood and absent-mindedness for a long time, said Zukhra Pavlova, an endocrinologist at the Moscow State University Scientific and Research Center, Candidate of Medical Sciences, in an interview with Sputnik radio.
Androgen deficiency associated with a pronounced decrease in testosterone or a significant increase in estradiol levels may also be the cause. However, this does not happen cyclically, as in women, but in a certain period, for example, at the onset of age.
“Then the man becomes lethargic, loses interest in travel and usual activities,” the expert said. “This is, figuratively speaking, PMS, and for the rest of your life.”
She added that hormonal imbalances can occur due to excess weight or disruption of circadian rhythms, when a person chooses to watch TV shows or flip through memes instead of a night’s sleep. In this case, apathetic behavior and a decrease in sexual activity are observed in men. They are more likely to prefer spending the evening at the computer than indulging in a romantic relationship.
True, Pavlova noted, the situation can be corrected with the help of physical activity, as well as the normalization of weight and sleep.
