This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright explore the concept of “male menopause” and whether it’s backed by science. Dr. Cooper breaks down hormonal changes in men, including testosterone decline, metabolic dysfunction, and the myths surrounding andropause.
The episode dives into why men and women experience aging differently, how metabolism ties into hormone shifts, and what really happens to male fertility and energy over time. After listening, you’ll understand why “male menopause” isn’t the full story and what really matters for men’s health as they age.
