We need Testosterone!
Testosterone
Testosterone is not just for men ! Before the menopause all of us with an ovarian system produce three times more testosterone than we do Oestrogen.
So, testosterone is essential for our female sex hormones, we all associate testosterone with sex drive and libido but it also affects our confidence, self esteem, mental clarity, energy, moods, bone mass and muscle mass.
When testosterone declines during the menopause, our libido can take a big dive as can our confidence and self esteem, brain fog can come too.
You can now get Testosterone on the NHS, you need to only have a normal amount of testosterone in a blood test to qualify for the supplement of testosterone. BUT, it still seems to be a man’s world in the NHS and the only reason they will give it to you is if your libido is low and it is affecting your sex life with your partner!
