Testosterone for Women in NYC

As women age their production of the important sex hormone testosterone declines. As that hormone declines so does confidence, bone density, body composition, muscle mass, metabolism, sexual function, clitoral sensitivity, energy levels, and sense of well-being. But one thing does go up; visceral fat and with that diabetes and heart disease.

It is common for women to suffer from low testosterone (Low-T), as it is a normal response to the body’s natural aging process. When left untreated, Low-T in women may lead to the decline of muscle mass, libido, overall energy level, and metabolism (along with much more). The Hormone Replacement Therapy doctor routinely builds custom Low-T treatment plans for female patients suffering from symptoms associated with low testosterone. Testosterone for women is best prescribed as a cream applied topically to the labia with a click dispenser. An intravaginal cream is also available.

What function does Testosterone serve for women? 

• Libido enhancement
• New blood cell production
• Management of follicle-stimulating hormones (directly affect reproduction)

Symptoms of Low-T in women include

• Depression
• Weakened muscles
• Decrease in sex drive / libido
• Decline in sexual satisfaction

Please note: We offer in-person and virtual consultations (from anywhere in the world).

The top rated board certified Hormone Replacement Therapy doctor may perform a blood test during the initial consultation to determine if you suffer from Low-T. Once it is confirmed you are a candidate for Low-T hormone replacement therapy, the best in class Manhattan based Hormone Replacement Therapy specialist will create a customized Low-T treatment plan that best suits your needs and post-treatment goals.

Testosterone just as estrogen in women declines with age. There is a wide range in the age as to when this occurs. Most women do lose significant levels of testosterone by menopause. Most often a woman’s testosterone declines enough to warrant replacement.
