Functional Medicine for Men’s Health

Condition

What Is Andropause?

Andropause, sometimes called the male menopause, describes the gradual decline in testosterone and other hormones in men, usually beginning around the age of 40. Unlike menopause in women, the changes are subtle and progress over years. Our functional medicine doctors work with men across the UK by video consultation, and our article on andropause covers the basics.

How It Affects People:

Testosterone influences nearly every system in the male body, including metabolism, muscle strength, brain function, mood, cardiovascular health and sexual vitality. When levels drop, many men feel not themselves, often without a clear explanation.
Typical symptoms include:
Conventional treatment often involves testosterone replacement therapy. While this can be helpful, it is sometimes prescribed without exploring why hormone levels have dropped, missing the chance to correct deeper imbalances. It is also worth considering testosterone even when symptoms are not obvious, as low levels may still affect long-term health.

Our Functional Medicine Approach

We go beyond symptom control and quick fixes. Our goal is to understand why hormone balance has shifted and to restore function.
Root causes we explore include:
Tools we use include advanced hormone and metabolic testing (blood, saliva and DUTCH testing), personalised nutrition and supplementation, lifestyle and exercise plans tailored to male physiology, prostate health and anti-inflammatory support, advanced lipid testing and cardiometabolic management, and support for natural testosterone production wherever possible, while still offering hormone replacement if it is clinically indicated and fits your preferences.

Faqs About Men’s Hormone Health and Functional Medicine

Do you offer hormone testing for men?
Yes. We run comprehensive hormone panels including total and free testosterone, DHEA, oestradiol, SHBG and cortisol. We may also recommend urinary DUTCH testing, stool analysis or advanced lipid testing depending on your health picture.

Your first appointment is 90 minutes. Your doctor will have reviewed your history in advance. During the consultation, we will map out your current issues, likely causes, and next steps, including testing.

No. Testing is charged separately and only recommended if it will genuinely influence your treatment plan.

Yes. You can upload your results before your appointment. If there are many, there may be a small preparation fee, but we will always confirm this with you first.
