Aging in men is a biological process shaped by hormonal decline, cellular wear, and reduced regenerative capacity. Andrology distinguishes between chronological aging and biological aging, emphasizing functional status over age alone.
Reproductive hormones influence muscle mass, bone integrity, and metabolic efficiency. Gradual decline is expected, but accelerated deterioration often signals pathological processes rather than normal aging.
By interpreting aging through a biological lens, andrology supports strategies that preserve function and erotic autonomy in later life.
