The type of hormonal changes typically experienced by middle aged men :
Answer: D
The key's answer is psychological adjustment to declining physical energy.
Unlike women at menopause, men in middle age do not experience a sudden hormonal change. Testosterone declines slowly, about one percent a year from early adulthood, and most men can still father children. The 'male climacteric' is therefore described in textbooks mainly as a period of psychological adjustment to declining energy, strength and sexual vigour.
A dramatic drop in testosterone and inability to father a child are wrong for typical men, and increased appetite is not a characteristic hormonal change of middle age.
