Testosterone for Women in their 50s

When most women think about testosterone, they think of it as a “male hormone.” But the truth is, testosterone plays a powerful role in women’s health — especially in your 40s and 50s.In this episode, I share my personal experience with low testosterone, the symptoms women often overlook, and what happened when I increased my dose. We’ll talk about:The direct symptoms of low testosterone in womenHow to know when it’s time to get testedWhat labs to request and how to read “normal” vs. “optimal” levelsThe safest and most effective methods of taking testosterone (and why I don’t recommend pellets)Possible side effects, how long it takes to see results, and who should not take testosteroneWhy lifestyle — stress, nutrition, and training — is just as important as hormone therapyAs always, I’m not a doctor — I’m a certified nutrition coach and FNMS graduate. I don’t treat, diagnose, or prescribe, but I do help women understand their labs and empower them to have informed conversations with their doctors.If you’ve been curious about testosterone and whether it could be the missing piece for your energy, strength, and confidence, this episode will give you clarity and direction.Send us Fan MailThank you so much for listening, please share with a friend and subscribe so you don't miss an episode!If you want to see how I can help you on your journey, book a quick 10-15 minute call so we can chat about your goals!https://www.menopotmeltdown.com/quickchatnowNow accepting clients!
