Testosterone is an important sex hormone for women
Testosterone helps to maintain muscle and bone strength, improves your libido and helps with your overall sense of wellbeing.
During the perimenopause and menopause, levels of the hormones estrogen, progesterone and testosterone fall. You have hormone receptors throughout your body, so topping up or replacing hormones through taking HRT is crucial not only to help improve symptoms, but also to safeguard your future health.
The NICE menopause guidelines recommend testosterone if you are experiencing low sex drive and HRT alone is not helping.
Many patients report that in addition to improved libido, testosterone can help improve other menopause-related symptoms such as anxiety, brain fog, fatigue as well as improving exercise tolerance.
Long Term Health Risks
A woman’s risk for health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis and a range of genitourinary issues increase with the onset of menopause.
