Testosterone for Women: Miracle Drug or Bogus Science?

Testosterone. That lovely hormone of desire, of sex, of muscles and power and strength. We think of manly men with hairy chests when we think of testosterone. But did you know women have testosterone too? They even make more testosterone than they do estrogen. Testosterone is one thing that controls sex drive in women and does a whole host of other things. It starts to decline in your late 20s. This can contribute to low libido in women. So should testosterone be replaced? I hope to answer this question for you with answers based on scientific studies- not bogus internet marketing claims. Does testosterone make for better sex?


If you are a midlife woman, peri or postmenopausal, then in some instances the answer is yes! Testosterone has been shown to definitively improve several aspects of sexual functioning. Testosterone improves sex drive, arousal, helps you have more and better orgasms, and increases pleasure and responsiveness.
