Women already have testosterone in their bodies, its one of the reasons we are all  just before our period and a lil bit  when it drops as our period arrives.
It should be included in HRT, in my opinion too, but isn't. They only replace estrogen and progesterone, which I find odd. Perhaps they need us to be more compliant?
Its only given in higher levels as part of gender reassignment, to my knowledge. |

Made no difference to me, I used a cream during menopause to increase my libido. Turns out I just needed a hot man who had skills! Lol
But no side effects (too low a dose I imagine) I've always had a deep manly voice!  |

Women with difficult perimenopause symptoms can get it prescribed in gel form, which is rubbed into the skin. It may be a bit of a faf trying to find a GP who is willing to do so though.

It is, because its not part of the GP's standard remit for HRT. |

It’s hard enough getting it prescribed for men let alone women for the menopause.
The benefits are clear for both sexes and should be available if required for all.
Anyway soap box away. Yes it helped a partner with sex drive was very beneficial. |

Some GP's will prescribe it on the NHS off-license, usually only alongside oestrogen. Unlucky women with crappy GP's can choose to fork out around £90 for a 50ml tube of Androfeme. The disparity in the way the NHS treats male and female sexual problems makes me feel particularly stabby.

You can get a blood test one privately via superdrug, to see if you need testosterone and get a prescription if needed but it's still chargeable.
