Introduction
In general, high levels of male androgens can be managed through lifestyle improvements, dietary adjustments, and medication. In addition to these approaches, other methods such as treating the underlying disease may also be effective. If a man experiences persistently high androgen levels over a prolonged period, it is recommended to seek prompt medical evaluation at a hospital to identify the specific cause and receive targeted treatment.
In general, high levels of male androgens can be managed through lifestyle improvements, dietary adjustments, medication, and other methods. Specific details are as follows:
1. Lifestyle Improvements
Men may experience endocrine imbalances due to habits such as staying up late or excessive alcohol consumption. It is important for men to change unhealthy habits, maintain a regular sleep schedule, go to bed early, wake up early, and avoid staying up late.
2. Diet
Regular consumption of spicy and stimulating foods—such as chili peppers, garlic, and ginger—may contribute to elevated androgen levels in men. It is recommended that men maintain a balanced diet, adopt healthy eating habits, and reduce intake of high-cholesterol foods such as organ meats, fried chicken, and fatty meats.
3. Medication
Elevated male androgen levels may lead to symptoms such as mood swings and acne. Under medical supervision, men may use medications such as flutamide capsules, cyproterone acetate tablets, or bicalutamide capsules for treatment.
Besides the above approaches, other management strategies include treating underlying diseases. If a man experiences persistently high androgen levels over a prolonged period, he should promptly visit a hospital for examination to identify the specific cause and receive targeted treatment.
