All women, and most men, know about the menopause. Women have a sudden lowering of estrogen levels leading to their menstrual periods stopping; this is often accompanied by hot flashes, irritability, and vaginal dryness.

The possibility that men might experience a similar wind down in reproductive function has been pondered for some years.
