Summary

More middle-aged women are seeking testosterone therapy, influenced by social media and promises of benefits like increased energy, libido, and muscle mass.

Prescriptions for testosterone have surged, with women turning to telemedicine and med-spas for treatment, though the FDA hasn’t approved it for female use.

Experts say testosterone is only recommended for low libido after ruling out other causes, and the benefits are modest. While side effects are rare with low doses, improper dosing can lead to irreversible changes.

Doctors note this trend reflects frustration with limited options for menopausal care.
