10 Things My Doctor Never Told Me About Testosterone At 48

Testosterone is the most abundant active sex hormone in a woman's body, and almost nobody tells you what low testosterone does to women in perimenopause and menopause. When I asked my doctor about testosterone for women, he laughed in my face and told me to lift weights. Like I'd asked for a pony instead of a hormone. I lost two years to that laugh. Then I found a doctor who didn't laugh, and the right testosterone protocol gave me back my sleep, my sex drive, my energy, and my face.  In this one I get into the 10 things he never told me: the hormone you have more of than estrogen, why low testosterone gets missed when your labs read "normal," whether testosterone really gives women a beard or bulky muscles, what it does to your libido and your mood, what it did to my skin and the collagen menopause stole, what the first night actually felt like, and how to find a doctor who won't laugh you out of the room when you ask about testosterone or hormone replacement therapy. If you're a woman over 40 navigating perimenopause or menopause, if your labs came back "normal" but you feel like a stranger in your own body, if you've ever been brushed off when you asked about testosterone, HRT, or your disappearing libido, this one's for you.
