The hormone is the 'missing part of the puzzle' for some women, but, for others, side effects include acne, facial hair and uncontrollable libido, finds Esther Walker
There are two oft-cited methods of testosterone delivery: Androfeme is a testosterone cream created for women – the catch is that it is made and only licenced for use in Western Australia. Testogel is licenced for use in the UK on women, but it is technically formulated for men and not completely user-friendly.
But, and this is an all-caps BUT, what there isn’t is scientific data to back this up – meaning there have been no randomised controlled trials on the effect of testosterone on brain function, mood, sleep, stamina and so on, in women. Only the effect of testosterone on libido. , the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence’s guidelines mean that the GP is not supposed to prescribe testosterone.
I don’t think testosterone is for me. At least, not right now. I’m sure my husband would love to have more sex, but all the libido in the world won’t cure the fact that everywhere I turn there is a pre-teen needing something urgent, or a dishwasher to unload, or a piece of work to finish.
