The Importance of Regular Check-ups with an Endocrinologist

When it comes to maintaining overall health and well-being, regular check-ups with various specialists play a crucial role. One such specialist that often gets overlooked is the endocrinologist. Many individuals are unaware of the vital functions an endocrinologist performs and the significance of scheduling regular visits with them. In this article, we will explore the importance of regular check-ups with an endocrinologist and how they can help ensure a healthy and balanced life.

Understanding the Role of an Endocrinologist

An endocrinologist is a medical expert who specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the endocrine system. The endocrine system is a complex network of glands that produce and secrete hormones, which regulate various bodily functions such as metabolism, growth, reproduction, and mood. Some of the essential glands in the endocrine system include the thyroid, pancreas, pituitary, adrenal, and reproductive glands.

Detecting and Managing Hormonal Imbalances

One of the primary reasons to visit an endocrinologist regularly is to detect and manage hormonal imbalances. Hormones act as messengers in the body, and even a slight imbalance can lead to significant health issues. Common conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) often require expert management by an endocrinologist. Through comprehensive testing and evaluation, an endocrinologist can identify these imbalances and create personalized treatment plans.

Managing Chronic Conditions

For individuals living with chronic endocrine disorders, regular check-ups with an endocrinologist are essential to keep the condition under control. Conditions like diabetes require continuous monitoring of blood sugar levels and adjustments to insulin or medication dosages. By staying in touch with an endocrinologist, patients can better manage their conditions and reduce the risk of complications.

Preventive Care and Early Detection

Regular visits to an endocrinologist also promote preventive care and early detection of potential health issues. Endocrinologists can assess a patient's risk factors for certain endocrine-related conditions and provide lifestyle recommendations to minimize those risks. Additionally, they can conduct screenings and tests to identify any developing problems at an early stage, increasing the chances of successful treatment.

Weight Management and Nutrition Advice

Weight management is often a struggle for many individuals, and the endocrine system can play a significant role in this aspect. Hormonal imbalances can lead to weight gain or difficulty losing weight. Endocrinologists can provide valuable insights into effective weight management strategies tailored to an individual's specific hormonal profile. Furthermore, they can offer nutrition advice to support overall endocrine health.

Reproductive Health and Fertility

For couples planning to start a family or facing challenges with fertility, an endocrinologist can be a valuable resource. They can assess and address potential issues with hormone levels, which may be affecting fertility. With their expertise, endocrinologists can suggest appropriate interventions to improve the chances of conception and a healthy pregnancy.

Addressing Bone and Calcium Disorders

Bone health is crucial for maintaining an active lifestyle and preventing conditions like osteoporosis. Endocrinologists can diagnose and treat disorders related to calcium metabolism and bone density. They can recommend lifestyle changes, supplements, or medications to strengthen bones and reduce the risk of fractures.

Managing Menopause and Andropause Symptoms

As individuals age, hormonal changes can lead to menopause in women and andropause (male menopause) in men. These transitions can come with various uncomfortable symptoms, affecting both physical and emotional well-being. Endocrinologists can offer guidance and treatments to alleviate these symptoms and improve the overall quality of life during these phases.

Understanding the Impact of Stress

Stress can significantly impact the endocrine system, leading to hormone imbalances and various health issues. Endocrinologists can help individuals understand the connection between stress and hormonal health. They can suggest stress management techniques to maintain hormonal balance and reduce the risk of stress-related complications.

Creating Individualized Treatment Plans

No two individuals are the same, and neither are their endocrine systems. Endocrinologists excel at creating personalized treatment plans that consider each patient's unique medical history, lifestyle, and health goals. This individualized approach ensures that patients receive the best possible care and support for their specific needs.

Conclusion

In conclusion, regular check-ups with an endocrinologist are of utmost importance for maintaining a healthy and balanced life. From detecting hormonal imbalances to managing chronic conditions, addressing reproductive health and bone disorders, and offering personalized treatment plans, endocrinologists play a vital role in our overall well-being. By prioritizing regular visits to these specialists, individuals can take charge of their hormonal health, prevent potential issues, and enhance their quality of life in the long run. Remember, your endocrinologist is not just a doctor; they are your partner in achieving and maintaining optimal health. So, schedule your check-up today and take the first step towards a healthier future.

The "Male menopause" or

#Andropause refers to the symptoms men experience as their testosterone production levels decrease with age. After the age of 40, testosterone levels start to decline and the symptoms associated with andropause begin to manifest.

Isaac II (Part 10)

Time is flying by. It's been 5 years since my last delivery and Isaac and I have talked a lot about our life plan. While we have always dreamed of having a huge family, and we really have, we haven't had any more children since Andrew, Adrian, Jon and Michael were born.

And it's not because we didn't try, because shortly after Sandra, Cal, Patrick and Isaac became parents, we were overcome with an immense sense of fatherhood. But apparently men, just like women, have a time in our lives when we stop being fertile. As there are still not so many men with the capacity to get pregnant, there is not much information about it. But after three years of trying and failing to get pregnant, considering our history, our doctor told us that we are going through male menopause, andropause he called it.

I did not take the news well, although in the end, at 53 years of age, it was more than expected. If after giving birth to the quadruplets I was unable to regain the shape I had before giving birth, after the news this was mission impossible. I drowned in food the anxiety I felt knowing that I would never again be able to generate life.

You'll say I'm an idiot. After giving birth to 21 babies in two decades, and expanding the family with grandchildren, who would want to have more children. Really, anyone you tell that we wanted to experience pregnancy one more time would think we were crazy. It took me months to understand what the people around me were thinking, but it's complicated for someone who has built so much of his life these past few years around his pregnancies, this new scenario was complicated.

The good thing is that I had Isaac and the kids by my side at all times. My sister and my friends Lucas and Adam were a great help in understanding that I had to enter a new stage in my life, the grandfather stage. I already had six grandchildren, the children of Sandra and Cal and Patrick and Isaac, wonderful, beautiful children. Although I was still raising my youngest children, the prospect of more grandchildren filled me with excitement.

Dylan, Nate, Philip, Edward and Cristina, now out of college and working, introduced us to their various partners. Dylan had met Jessica, a beautiful girl who was Miss of her country, I can't remember where is she from. Cristina had Veronica as a girlfriend, and apparently they don't want to have children, they say they prefer to be the cool aunts. Edward is very reserved, but from time to time he let slip the name of a girl named Pamela. Philip was dating Peter, coach of the local soccer team and son of my friend Frank, whom I never imagined as part of my family. Nate, on the other hand, has inherited my husband's gift for flirting, so every now and then he would come home with a guy or girl he had just met and with whom he was already planning his life forever.

Sandra and Cal are still happily in love. They have decided to continue with Cal's parents' business, and not to resume their studies. Little Samba is the most handsome boy in the world, no wonder, having the parents he has. They got married a year after becoming parents, in a small ceremony with their immediate family and little else. They wanted an intimate celebration to celebrate their love with those closest to them.

Bruce, Ken, Charlotte, Ivana and Jason have started their college experience this year. This is not the case of Patrick, who decided to stop for a year to be able to raise his children with more attention during the first months. He and Isaac combine their studies with part-time jobs from Monday to Friday and full-time on weekends. Both have made their first steps as photographic models. As their parents we helped them as much as possible, although we were surprised by how clear their ideas about their life as a couple were. They lived in a small house that allowed them to live comfortably, but without too many expenses, in order to save and be able to progress later on. Two teenagers were giving a life lesson to four grown adults.

A few weeks ago, on the birthday of their sons Anton, Ian, Benji, Liam and Zach announced to us that they wanted to get married. They had been living together for a long time and deeply in love, so I guess it was the inevitable step in their lives. I cried like a little girl when Patrick told Isaac and I that he was getting married. In addition to the excitement of seeing a son get married, there was also the emotion of seeing myself very much reflected in the story of these two boys who, at just 20 years old, were living intensely the life they wanted.

Two months after the announcement, the big day arrived. Little by little the guests arrived at the venue. All our children and their respective partners, nieces and nephews, friends, some teachers, colleagues from work and sports teams… the room was filling up waiting for the two lovers. Sandra attracted many stares, especially from those who did not yet know that she was pregnant again.

While keeping an eye on our youngest children, I ran into Lucas and Adam, both impeccably dressed in gray. It seemed unbelievable that these two men my own age had this physique, with no exercise according to bastard Lucas, and I look like I'm eight months pregnant. It doesn't help that I've given birth to a good portion of the guests at this ceremony. And it also doesn't help that my husband has insisted on keeping me fat because it makes him so horny. I look more and more like my father.

After a few minutes Isaac arrived accompanied by his brother, Dan. The groom looked gorgeous in his navy blue suit, bow tie and a flower in his lapel. You could see him standing there looking so handsome and nervous waiting for Patrick to arrive. When he walked up the aisle he didn't talk to anyone, he was staring at the door of the venue, he was a bundle of nerves. Even with those nerves on edge we could see why he was dedicating himself to being a photo model. The boy was the spitting image of his father Lucas when he was young, the same Lucas I was madly in love with as a teenager.

Five minutes later Patrick arrived accompanied by my husband Isaac. Isaac looked spectacular, and I was reassured to see that he had also put on some weight in recent years, not as much as I had, but he was not as thin as when we first met. Although he has aged more than I have, he looked like a handsome mature Hollywood actor in his navy blue suit.

Our son stepped forward a bit when they arrived near the altar. The poor guy only had eyes for his future husband, Isaac. He walked briskly over to where he stood and took his hand, smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek.

“Hold my hand you too, I'm about to burst into tears from excitement,” Isaac whispered in my ear as he sat next to me in the front row. I pinched his cheek tenderly and gave him a peck on the mouth.

After a few minutes of speeches from friends and family, Dylan, our oldest son and the master of ceremonies, invited the grooms to dedicate their vows to each other. The first to speak was Isaac.

“Patrick, I can't believe we're here, on this day we've dreamed of so much. We've been dating for six years, but I think I remember being in love with you for as long as I can remember. You were the mischievous little boy with the charming smile that I always wanted to play with when my parents took me to your parents' house. As luck would have it, we connected and time brought us together in a way I never imagined we would with you. I think all of us gays are scared to take the step of starting a relationship with our best friend in high school, but I will never, ever regret kissing you at the end of the hallway on the second floor of high school. You have given me the five most beautiful children in the world and you have filled every second of my life with light. I want to share with you the rest of our lives, expand our family and the happiness we share. I love you,” Isaac said. The audience applauded and he, deeply in love, kissed Patrick.

“What can I say now?” began Patrick, which was followed by some complicit laughter from the audience. “The gift of gab has never been my strong suit, but I've been writing down what to say now for weeks. I come from a huge family and grew up watching both my parents love each other deeply. I don't think I was ever aware of how much I wanted to build something that looked even the slightest bit like what the two of them had built. From a young age I knew I was gay, and I don't know why I thought that because of that very fact I wouldn't have the ease of having children that my brothers did. But then you came into my life. The boy I have been in love with since I was 5 years old. Our love was complicated, for some people we are like cousins and for others even brothers, but for me you have always been my best friend, and now the father of my children and the man with whom I share every moment of my life. You kissed me that fall day in high school, and my life changed forever, everything made sense. Since that moment I have wanted to share every moment with you. My friends and siblings know that I am not able to have a conversation, no matter what the topic, without mentioning you 20 times a minute, you complement me and you have made me grow personally and emotionally. Can I ask for more? I don't think so. I can't wait to put the ring on your finger and make official in the eyes of the law what has been official in our hearts and family for six years now. It will be the first step in the rest of our wonderful lives. I want you to join me on this journey. I love you, Isaac,” Patrick finished, planting a kiss right there for Isaac.

Dylan uttered the relevant questions and they both responded with a resounding “yes”, to which our eldest son told them “you can kiss the groom, or should I say husband”. The two melted into one, kissing passionately. The guests were clapping and throwing petals and rice at them. Lucas, Adam, Isaac and I were in the front row, four 55-year-old men crying like babies watching our sons united in marriage and sharing their happiness with everyone.

They went on a honeymoon in the Caribbean, and when they returned they told us that in a few weeks they would be moving to the big city because of a job offer they had both received. A modeling agency had noticed their wedding photos and wanted to sign them, for which they had to move to the city, where they would find the best job opportunities.

Since their departure we spoke to them very little, as they had an impossible schedule of photo shoots, catwalks and interviews. A year after their wedding, taking advantage of the fact that Lucas and Adam were with us at home, we made a video call with them. They looked overjoyed, deeply happy with their life together. They told us how they were balancing parenting their five children with a career as demanding as modeling.

“Dads, we have something to tell you, that's why we called you”, Isaac said on the other side of the screen. “We found out a few weeks ago and we wanted you to be the first to know. Isaac and I are going to be dads again, we're pregnant", said Patrick.

The end of Isaac II

Once irkens become fertile, do they stay fertile until they die, or do they go through a menopause/andropause phase in which they become infertile once they become elderly?

Irkens don't go through a menopause/ andropause phase the way humans do. [At least not in my personal head canon, so I really don't expect anyone to apply this to their own head canons.]

Almost all irkens [pre control brain take over] experienced a silking cycle upon complete physical maturity [around 100-years-old, in most hives. The silking cycle's purpose is to condition the drone's body for the task of matung/conception, not to indicate the body of the drone is ready for the task. Nor does experiencing a silking cycle clearly indicate a drone's gender. The exposure and exchange of pheromones plays the biggest role and each fertility festival is a different experience... ]

Irken women tend to produce more silk with stronger fibers and experience more regular cycles, but cycles vary from hive to hive. The ability to collect fibers from Irken silk and spin it into thread is a lucky byproduct of nature and Irken curiosity/ ingenuity. Just as important for survival and development as the discovery of fire.

The data collected on safe Irken mating practices are dangerously limited to nonexistent for the Irken civilian; reserved for medical drones and classified to all others, to clarify.

Fertile Irken women usually can't successfully conceive and carry a swarm until they are at least 200-400 years old. The younger the drone, the higher the risk of maternal death. Very seldomly can an Irken give birth more than 3 times and survive the labor. Most die soon after their second birth (Mem is a legendary exception). Proper medical care can better the chances of survival, but nature makes the rules.

So in the earliest era to the third, the three main causes of death for Irken women were 1; war and/or work related casualties, 2; Smeetbirth and 3; exhaustion/ starvation (which can arguably be lumped into war or work related casualties.)

It is not a guarantee that a drone who silks is a fertile female or even a biological female. Only exposing and exchanging pheromones will determine if a drone will sire or conceive during the fertility festival. (Irken gender differentiation is purely representational and cosmetic; not at all governed by the same rigid/ ridiculous standards human gender differentiation is.)

Passing larger amounts of blood/ proteins/ chunks of spooch tissue can be a sign that the drone may have difficulty surviving birth. Yeet, at roughly 16-years-old, started her silking cycle; is an oddity an medically concerning. Had she been born in an earlier era, Yeet most likely would not have survived giving birth to her first swarm, if her life had not been taken by some kind of work/ war related casualty.

For any other specific questions about the Irken silking cycle, I will direct you to Div. She, or her virtual downloaded personality interface hosts the mandatory lecture on Irken Womanhood. (I have notes on the subject concerning the silking cycles of modern drones and pre control brain take over drones. I just need to find the sketchbook. Sorry, I',m so unorganized. And sorry this answer was so long-winded. Tried to answer as many questions on the subject as possible because I'm centuries behind on asks. ^^;)

Wanted to reblog this because I edited this a little and I wanted to add this

[shoujoboy-restart]

Don't both cis men and cis women get hormone replacement therapy too and even cis kids too?

Like I'm 90% sure cis people and even cis kids also get HRT when they lack specific or have too much of a specific hormone in their body

Like I even read that this is a real treatment for those who are intersex or have PCOS or just for cosmetic reasons for cis men and women

Yup, HRT was originally made to help women with menopause and men with andropause. Same way hormone blockers were at first made to help treatment for cancer, since if you stop sex hormone production you halt a lot of general cell production and therefore cancer cell production, and then adapted further hormone disordered people and those suffering with early puberty.

Like most of the argument is literally "SURE THIS EXISTS FOR ALMOST CENTURIES...BUT THE LONG TERM EFFECTS!!!" Which is a very dishonest arguemnt when we know damn well they just straight up want ban HRT for transitioning because they don't want people to transition not because of any actual fear the medication is flawed, which they still have no proof of.

Okay but what if...

listen, this might sound crazy, but... I have a theory.

Most people know about ciswomen having menopause, but did you guys know that men go through menopause too? But as cismen. It's called andropause.

It seems to me it might be kinda similar to a midlife crisis, but biologically. To me, Kazui seems to show several of these symptoms.

Let's go over some of them:

Depression (some of these also tie into lowered self-confidence):

Decreased motivation:

Feeling of physical weakness:

(there's other mentions of him calling himself an old man)

Furthermore, his age also fits well.

It's kinda suspicious he's 39 - one year off from 40

Let's learn about what is Male Andropause with doctor Ahmad Alenezi -Male menopause can cause physical, sexual, and psychological problems. They typically worsen as you get older.
