Men could hardly accept it that andropause is striking them. They face their greatest fear thus denying that apparent symptoms of andropause in them are not happening. How can anyone accept the fact that they are losing their energy, sex drive and physical agility? Moreover, they would also deny that IMS (Irritable Male Syndrome) is attacking them.
