Testosterone and Menopause
Menopause often brings to mind declining estrogen levels, but testosterone plays a crucial role in women's health too. While commonly associated with men, this hormone is just as vital for women, particularly during and after menopause.
Testosterone in women helps maintain energy, libido, muscle strength, and cognitive function. If you are struggling with any of these things then it might be worth investigating.
In this episode I share my experience with testosterone as part of my HRT journey.
