Testosterone 101: Everything You Need to Know in 20 Minutes
About this episode
Tamsen Fadal explains the importance of testosterone for women and addresses common misconceptions about hormone health.
So you've heard about testosterone. Maybe your doctor mentioned it, maybe you saw something on social media, maybe you just feel off and you're trying to figure out why. But no one has sat down and actually explained it to you. Until now. Tamsen has spent years interviewing the top doctors in the menopause space and has her own real experience navigating testosterone: the wrong turns, the things that finally worked, and everything she wishes someone had told her sooner. This episode is her way of making it simple. Whether you've been on estrogen and progesterone and still feel flat, you've lost motivation and drive and chalked it up to stress or getting older, or you've been handed an antidepressant when what you actually needed was a hormone conversation, this episode is for you. Because testosterone was never just a male hormone. And the fact that most of us were never told that says everything. You'll learn: - Why women actually have more testosterone in their bodies than estrogen and what happens when it drops - The difference between low libido and the flatness that touches everything: energy, motivation, muscle, mood - Why the standard blood test may completely miss low…
