- Dr. Harper and I discuss the importance of testosterone for women’s health, including muscle mass, metabolism, mental health, and the health of the genitourinary tract. We address common questions and misconceptions about testosterone, such as why it isn’t easy to prescribe and the normal ranges for women. We also explore the use of testosterone in the treatment of genetic urinary syndrome of menopause and its potential benefits for breast cancer survivors. The conversation highlights the need for personalized hormone therapy and the importance of considering other factors that may impact libido and overall well-being.
