The ovaries and adrenal glands produce most of the testosterone in women. Testosterone simulates an increase in muscle mass, boosts libido, improves energy/mood, and opposes the cell proliferative effects of estrogen to reduce the risk of breast cancer. By inducing increased bone mass, testosterone also reduces the risk of osteoporosis in women. Testosterone is especially responsible for sex drive, sexual experience, and sensitivity of a woman’s clitoris and nipples. As women age and progress through menopause, hormone levels decline, including testosterone. Testosterone isn’t just a guy thing – supplemental testosterone for women is essential for optimal wellness as well as sexual health.
You might have low testosterone if you experience any of these symptoms:
Low testosterone and high risk for cardiovascular disease go hand-in-hand. Supplemental testosterone for both men and women lowers the risk of a heart attack.
