"Oestrogen declines during menopause, often causing a reduced libido - but testosterone also plays a role. Does taking it help women to recover their sex drive? Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in menopause is currently a hot topic, with social media chatter suggesting it can turbo-charge libido and that every menopausal woman should be on it. While a low, declining or even absent libido isn't an issue for some, for others it can be very distressing."

While a low, declining or even absent libido isn't an issue for some, for others it can be very distressing. Studies show that a healthy sex life - with a partner or through masturbation - may help lower the risk of cardiovascular disease, and there is strong evidence that regular sexual activity and orgasm improves mood."
Oestrogen levels decline during menopause and this frequently leads to reduced libido, while testosterone also contributes to sexual desire. Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) during menopause has gained attention, with social media promoting it as a way to rapidly boost libido and asserting that all menopausal women should use it. Some women experience little or no change in libido, but for others a low, declining or absent sex drive causes significant distress. Regular sexual activity, whether partnered or solo, may reduce cardiovascular disease risk, and there is strong evidence that frequent sexual activity and orgasm improve mood.
