Thoughts on Male Menopause and Menopause: (Cortisol/hormones)
Following
my accident (CLICK) I
found that certain hormonal rages including but not limited to cortisol
levels being jacked up would send me in to fits, rages, and emotional
awkwardness. Once I told the doctors to test cortisol levels they did,
but only after my insistence and after 14 months following my accident.
What they found was substantially elevated cortisol a condition which
can trigger a host of problems that as yet I have not found a single
doctor who understands the full ramifications (including food/digestive
disorders CLICK gluten free diet).
What I was told by the doctors
was that following my accident my adrenals flooded my system and that
likely went out of control. Once the adrenals were exhausted my
cortisol production took over that �stress� and the high levels took
over. Cortisol is considered by many to be the �fight or flight�
hormone or �stress� hormone. I found that during this time of elevated
cortisol I could go from nice guy to �whoop ass� in a split second. Not
a good thing at all.
Meanwhile cortisol levels
elevated left unchecked will begin to re-arrange things in your body at
the cellular level (removing potassium and replacing with sodium for one
thing.) The elevated cortisol does a host of things as can be studied
on the Internet at length, but there are food/digestive issues that will
spin this out of control. (CLICK FOOD/DIGESTIVE)
Meanwhile, once the doctors were
told to check for hormone issues, and they responded, they then became
transfixed with hormonal issues and lost site of the rest of the
picture. This led them to discussions of such things as �male
menopause�, which presumably is somewhat like �female menopause� just
less understood. What we will likely find is there is a common
methodology to address both forms of menopause, but as it is typically
addressed in relation to symptoms (rather than cause) we may not be
getting too much closer to the answer. What if greater circulation and
oxygenation of the cells and the body would help?

Osteoporosis
(Oddly for me the symptoms of
menopause seem to closely replicate those of TBI, traumatic brain
injury, in many ways.) It does not matter if you are speaking of male or
female menopause many symptoms are similar, and conventionally doctors
treat �symptoms� not cause. Often they focus on the differences in men
and women, rather than similarities�����..I decided to pursue a
different tack. This tack will likely provide tremendous improvement
for others. It costs nothing to consider it.
What if the �shutting
down� of the body has to do with lack of circulation or oxygenation of
the body? Isn�t it true that one of the most sensational drugs
introduced to boost a man�s sex life is/was Viagra which it little more
than a vasiodialator that restores �flow� and circulation? What if
restoration of oxygenation/circulation could address this issue?
One significant feature or
symptom of menopause is �hot flashes� or high heat periods of the body.
Think of it this way, when the
body produces fever it is often because something in the body senses it
needs to fight off a bacteria/fungus, or some form of
infection/problem. Isn�t this true? Well a �symptom� of menopause is
often hot flashes and conventionally a doctor will tell you the symptom
hot flash is caused by a hormonal release (or failure to release) and if
one can control the hormone then one can control the heat flash. Isn�t
this true? Okay, what if the body knows EXACTLY what it is doing and
the hormonal release is designed to create a heat that kills off
something pathogenic or predatory on the body such as an infection?
(CLICK CANDIDA?) Now, if you control the hormones in this instance then
you miss the opportunity to address the REAL problem!! THINK!
Seeking
the cause rather than symptoms proved important in my recovery and
ongoing health. What the doctors tried to diagnose as a form of
menopause was really a bacterial/fungi issue gone rogue.
Now, let�s look at if/when the
�hot flash� occurs. If it was meant to fight off an attacker of the
body then when should it subside? Presumably the hot flash could stop
when that opponent is sufficiently killed off. Seems simple? The
"fallout" from killing the pathogen would then leave some toxic residues
in the system until they are removed (Herzheimers effect) Okay, now
if/when one visits the �doctor� the pathogen is greatly reduced except
in cases where the body is ready to produce a �flash�. Can you see
this? Given proper opportunity the body kills off the aggressor, then
doctors will not have evidence of its existence.
Meanwhile certain
types of aggressive fungus/bacteria such as �candida� (yeast infection)
can continue to reside in the body in lower amounts following the �kill
off� of many of their cells. (See Herzheimers)
This is just one example that clearly could be operating in the body
those who are diagnosed menopausal.
Part of the problem is most
doctors lack the ability and training to diagnose such
things as
�systemic candida�. (CLICK) Since it is anaerobic (does not live in
oxygen environment) it is killed off in the doctor�s blood sample tubes
as soon as the blood in the tube turns red, so the �culture� won�t show
it was there, will it? THINK!!! It is not uncommon in many
�menopause� issues for at least some form of yeast infection to have
existed prior. The yeast (candida) is there, yet your doctor will be
late in diagnosing it if he ever does at all. Note: Systemic candida is
so late in its diagnosis and so far advanced when it is diagnosed that
it is often fatal for 40-50% of those diagnosed. This means doctors
often know too little too late about this. Women (and men for this matter)
are obviously exposed to levels of �yeast� and �fungal� infections............What
I found is the "puddling" effect in my
concussion/accident allowed fluids to stagnate and a bacteria/fungal
cess pool begin. Ridding
of puddling, and
hyperbaric treatment is a good general treatment for all it seems.
Hyperbaric treatment elevates the presence
of oxygen in the cell and theoretically given the opportunity the
anaerobic pathogens mentioned should die simply due to the presence of
oxygen. Amazingly, the oxygen kills pathogens and boosts cell
production and operation. It seems like a double whammy for the body at
the cellular level with low risk, low side effects, no addictions. Does
this seem too good to be true? It could be.
You won�t know until you
try, because the law prevents us from telling you what it can do.
Meanwhile the hormonal rage that
appears to be menopause may have a real job it is trying to do. At the
same time the stress of cortisol and other hormonal rages that I was
experiencing (mis-diagnosed as MANopause) opens the door
to a chain of events for destruction����Like it or not all of the above
seems to make sense and there is a rather simple explanation and means
to address it. Oddly, not a single doctor I know has addressed this.
The symptoms I had following one
year after my wreck led doctors to possibly correctly diagnose �male
menopause�. Yet, it is �possible� they were correct as much as it is
�possible� they were incorrect. In regards to �menopause� it seems that
many are operating in the dark. Problem is they were addressing
symptoms and not causes. Unfortunately western medicine is too
often symptom focused, and rarely cause focused.
I believe the cause was found in
my situation, and it seems to have been rectified in essence without the
assistance of a doctor. Soon (very soon) with HBOT and other assistance
by changing some simple life patterns we saw the heat flashes dissipate,
the seizures went away, and life began to operate more as it once had.
Hyperbaric was part of the key to
returning to wellness, possibly because anaerobic bacteria will die in
the presence of oxygen. Oxygen often excites the cells and helps the
body run �cleaner� like an engine which has been turbo-charged. By
increasing the power to the strong parts of the body, and decreasing the
effects of anaerobic pathogens the body can make a change for the
better.

(Note: One �symptom� I was
experiencing was seizures with the heat episodes. One western trained
doctor went as far as to tell me that if I knew I would go through a
seizure and/or heat cycle at or around 0500 every morning then to set my
alarm and wake up to pre-empt the attack while they tried to sort out
the problem. Imagine, they were given the time of the recurring and
dangerous event (seizure) and the only idea was to wake up before the
event��The timing and the idea of pre-empting it gave part of the idea
for our means to address this problem.)����My nightly seizures appear to
have been triggered by a brain injury effect and the cortisol. (CLICK
