In this episode, I dive into the role of testosterone as part of hormone replacement therapy. Inspired by a recent conversation with a male endocrinologist, I tackle the frustrating double standards surrounding testosterone treatment for women. Why is it casually prescribed for men, but women need a specific diagnosis?

Check out this episode where we discuss:

• The importance of testosterone for women's health beyond libido.
• How low testosterone affects your sex life and overall well-being.
• Different methods of testosterone supplementation and their pros and cons.
