MANopause Maniac A Look Into Andropause: The Male Menopause

Physical Exam Report – I’m a Go!

Recently I visited my primary physician.  As I reported to you before, I had stopped all of the prescription drugs she had given me as I didn’t need two of the three (for reflux), and I wanted to see if my cholesterol and triglycerides would remain low as they did for the BodyLogicMD tests.  If so, I could continue not taking the statin.  Dr. Holly Marshall was fine with my not taking the drugs, as the levels were low according to the results of a recent blood test. 

My bioidentical hormones doctor Dr. Landa had suggested I have a bone scan as the BodyLogicMD test results indicated I might have a low bone density level.  She was right to be concerned, as recent tests showed my bone density was borderline osteoporosis.  So, my primary physician gave me a prescription for the Fosomax once-a-week pill. 

At my physical exam with Dr. Marshall, I was disappointed that my body weight loss wasn’t greater.  Therefore, I am going to get back to a much more regular weekly gym and exercise routine.  Even though my belly fat is less – by measure of my belt position – I must increase resistance exercises to transform more fat into muscle tissue. 

I am good to go to a new level over the next three months.   I’ll keep you posted.
