Age Better with Liz Earle · Testosterone explained: what it does for women in midlife · 21 Sep 2026 podcast

Let's get back onto the question. podcast-host

Uh you continue to say, now I'm having trouble getting testosterone. podcast-host

Yeah, obviously. podcast-host

I read all your information about it and have many symptoms I believe is being caused by the lack of it in my body. podcast-host

Can you give me information where I can get this? podcast-host

My doctor will not prescribe it, and my chemist will only give it with a prescription. podcast-host

I'd be very grateful if you could point me in the right direction as to where I can. podcast-host

I can buy this. podcast-host

Yours sincerely, Tina. podcast-host

Well, hmm, okay, so testosterone, let's have a chat about that quickly. podcast-host

It's often thought of as a male hormone, but women produce it too. podcast-host

We make it in the ovaries and in our adrenal glands, and our levels gradually decline from early adulthood. podcast-host

And the symptom which we have the strongest clinical evidence for is persistent loss of sexual desire. podcast-host

Sometimes it's called hypoactive sexual desire disorder. podcast-host

And this can happen having already optimized your estrogen and progesterone and looked at all sorts of other causes. podcast-host

And because of that, the NICE guidelines say that testosterone. podcast-host

can be considered for menopause related low sexual desire when podcast-host

HRT alone hasn't helped. podcast-host

So it's usually you get your estrogen and your progesterone sorted, and then if you're still having issues, then you can trial your testosterone. podcast-host

So GPs absolutely are able to prescribe it for this. podcast-host
