HOW TO RECOGNIZE M-M IN YOURSELF —AND OTHERS

The symptoms of M-M cover wide territory that is both physical and emotional with no one symptom itself the signal beacon that says the male-menopause has started for this man. Many symptoms are serious and many, taken singly, are minor. Together they add up to the seemingly inevitable.

To the man who has it as much as the man who is observing a friend behaving erratically or oddly out of character, it should be some consolation to know that these disturbing symptoms linked together form part of a greater pattern that is likely to effect most men no matter how intellectual or full of commonsense they may be.

To the woman whose man is behaving irrationally the signs will show that this quirky behaviour is symptom and reaction to M-M and not simply due to excessive moodiness or mental instability. Nor is it confined to him alone.

In time M-M passes. But for a man to survive with style and success it demands positive action, willpower and know-how on his part, and from others, understanding, help or sympathy. Knowing the symptoms makes the spotting easier and paves the way for survival.
