Testosterone Therapy for Women: A Critical Hormone for Energy, Libido, and Wellbeing
While testosterone is typically associated with men’s health, it also plays a critical role in the wellbeing of women. Produced in the ovaries and adrenal glands, testosterone contributes to libido, energy, muscle mass, bone density, and mood regulation. For many women, especially those approaching menopause or who have undergone surgical oophorectomy, testosterone levels decline significantly which leads to a constellation of symptoms that can be addressed with carefully monitored hormone replacement therapy.
