MEN'S HEALTH
Ropheka Pharmacy offers compounding services to help improve men’s health. As men age, hormonal imbalance might cause them to experience health issues such as a decrease in libido, muscle mass, or stamina as well as erectile dysfunction (ED).
These signs and symptoms are referred to as “male menopause” or “andropause” and can result from decreased levels of testosterone or a relatively increased level of estrogen.
The pharmacists at Ropheka Pharmacy work with healthcare providers to design compounded hormone replacement to fit a patient’s unique body and hormone levels. Personalized hormone therapy results in a more accurate treatment plan and a healthier outcome for men.
Benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), commonly known as prostate gland enlargement, is another condition affecting men as they age.
Your doctor may prescribe a compounded prescription from Ropheka Pharmacy. Signs of an enlarged prostate include urinary incontinence, weak urine flow, and difficulty urinating.
ED is a common problem that affects over 20 million males in the US.
ED can occur at any age and can be a sign of a physical or psychological condition. While some men respond well to commercially available products, others require more personalized treatment. Rophpeka Pharmacy pharmacists can combine two or more medications, individualize dosing, and create a formulation (liquid, tablet, capsule, or cream) that is most effective for each patient.
Males also may suffer from low testosterone levels as they age.
When the body does not maintain adequate testosterone levels, it can affect quality of life. Body function and development depend on this critical hormone for sexual health, cognitive operation, and other important aspects of good health.
