December has its own rhythm in Ealing – busy shops, festive plans, colder evenings and a noticeable rise in coughs, fevers and winter bugs.

It’s surprisingly common for men to visit us and say something like, “I can’t put my finger on it… I just don’t feel like myself.” Changes in energy, sleep, strength, mood or motivation can creep up slowly.
