Testosterone plays an important role when it comes to menopause symptoms and it is commonly prescribed by menopause specialists due to evidence of benefit with lack of libido.
✨ What does testosterone do in women?
Androgens, such as Testosterone play a vital role in s*xual desire and s*xual response.
In women, we have a natural gradual decline in testosterone from our 30s, when our ovarian function declines. However, in those that have had a sudden menopause, due to the ovaries being removed or chemotherapy for example, testosterone will sharply decline.
This fall in testosterone can lead to reduced libido (s*x drive), reduced s*xual responsiveness and ability to or**sm. Some women also notice reduced energy, brain fog, loss of stamina and mood changes.
Not all women with low testosterone will have symptoms.
