irritable male syndrome 暴躁男性综合症

是否遇到过点火就着的男同事或者男性朋友？难道他们每月也固定有那么几天心情不快？这其实是睾酮激素水平突然下降惹的祸。

 

Irritable¹ male syndrome² refers to anger and irritableness in men caused by a sudden drop in testosterone levels, particularly when brought on by stress.

暴躁男性综合症指的是由于男性的睾酮水平突然下降，特别是在压力之下导致突然下降时，出现的易怒症状。

 

"Irritable Male Syndrome," that state of hypersensitivity, frustration³ and anger is now used to describe men who suffer from testosterone deficiency.

暴躁男性综合症指的是过于敏感、感觉受挫和易怒的状态，现在用来形容饱受睾酮激素不足之苦的男性。

 

And while the condition may have been around for ages, the diagnosis⁴ suggests that men may be just as vulnerable to the complexities⁵ of biology as women.

尽管这种症状已经存在很久，对这一症状的诊断意味着男性或许与女性一样，容易受到生理复杂性的困扰。

 

"This is very common," said Dr. Philip Aliotta. "Low levels of testosterone manifest in irritability⁶, depression, weak muscles, loss of self-esteem. Men have no interest in the joys of life. Their libido⁷ has dropped. Their interest in intimacy⁸ is declining. Sexual function diminishes. Work performance suffers. Oftentimes they are misdiagnosed as being depressed⁹."

菲利普-艾略塔博士说：“这种情况很常见。睾酮激素较低的男性易怒、抑郁、肌肉无力，也缺乏自尊。他们对生活的快乐无感，性欲降低，对亲密关系的兴趣也降低了。他们还会遭受性功能衰退，工作表现也更加差劲，有时还会被误诊为抑郁症。”
