I see your comment about age/hormonal issues that have to do with this. I think, but am not sure that was covered in some of the resources. I will look and see if I or anyone else did cover that subject.
From what I read it just said that their hormones were out of whack. I have yet to find anything that relates menopause/andropause(for men) to this whole process. The answers that I seem to get from people that are breezing though this process is that it has no cause/effect. I am not sure that I agree. Certainly all women/men go through a decline of hormones and they all don't have a MLC. However for those that do how does this event relate? When their hormones levels out does the crisis end or subside?

"Normal" male adropause lasts from age 30-70, with about a 10% drop in hormone levels per decade. Women off course have a much more precipitous drop. I don't know if men in MLC have a different "normal" or a larger drop in levels.

I know speaking for myself now that I have started to exhibit signs of hormone decline. My body itches for no apparent reason and I am sure I could come up with some other symptoms. LOL.

Anyway I was looking for other people to chime in about my theory or am I just way off base?
