Let Balance My Hormones correct your high or low levels of testosterone. As part of your balanced bio-identical hormone treatment, our specialised doctors can add testosterone to your hormone replacement therapy. Testosterone is normally considered the male sex hormone but just as men need a little oestrogen in their system, women need some testosterone in theirs. In fact, female testosterone levels are only 10% different to levels in men. Like in andropause for men, testosterone also declines during menopause for women along with oestrogen and progesterone which can cause a hormone imbalance. The drop off in female testosterone can lead to low libido, lethargy, and decreased muscle mass. Testosterone treatment can help to counteract the effect of levels dropping during menopause or through natural ageing.
Testosterone like any other hormone helps keep our bodily functions in check which ultimately ensures we are feeling our best. Testosterone helps with the growth and repair of a woman’s reproductive tissues and bone mass. It also plays a role in regulating mood which has an effect on your energy levels and libido. Our doctors can help balance your hormones correctly with bio-identical oestrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.
Just as testosterone is important in men when it comes to libido, the same is true in women. Having a normal level of testosterone in the body contributes to a healthy sex drive and enhances the mood while also being mostly responsible for clitoral and nipple sensitivity to stimulation. It can help to improve and enable orgasms and sexual responses during intercourse. When a woman has abnormal levels of testosterone it can have a negative effect on their sex drive and overall sexual functioning
Testosterone is responsible for much more than just sex drive and libido. It is largely responsible for helping to maintain bone and muscle health throughout the body. For both men and women, the process of ageing or experiencing unnaturally low levels of testosterone can contribute to poor and worsening bone and muscle health. If you want to experience good muscle and bone health, it is important that you maintain a healthy level of testosterone in the body and that any unnatural imbalance is addressed through HRT or another treatment method.
Testosterone and proper testosterone levels also play a large part in determining the level of energy and the quality of your mood on any given day. When you are low on testosterone levels, you are more susceptible to mood swings due to hormonal imbalances. Additionally, you may experience fatigue at a higher rate. Your sense of well-being and mood will be altered due to the imbalance.
Menopause is a process that every woman will go through in their lifetime and is brought on by a drop in all the sex hormones including testosterone. Testosterone treatment for menopausal women is known to be successful at reducing, if not eliminating unwanted menopause symptoms.
If you hope to overcome low testosterone and achieve normal testosterone levels in your body, then you will need to know what to look for when it comes to symptoms. The first step to getting treatment is being able to identify symptoms that’re caused by low testosterone. While there is no way to know for sure if you are experiencing low levels of testosterone without a blood test, you can make things easier on yourself by looking out for specific side effects that could be telltale signs that you have low levels of testosterone.
Testosterone is very important for maintaining energy levels in the body. Without the right balance, both men and women may experience fatigue and a lack of energy to get through the day. Fatigue can be a symptom of a lot of conditions, so you don’t want to jump to conclusions if you are only fatigued. A combination of low testosterone symptoms is more likely to lead to a diagnosis.
If your testosterone levels are not balanced for a prolonged period of time, you could experience a decrease in bone health and bone density. This is a clear side effect of prolonged neglect of testosterone balance. It is important that if you are experiencing decreased bone health or have tested for low testosterone, you address the situation quickly so that it doesn’t do irreparable harm to your body.
For anyone that pays attention to their muscle mass and health, low testosterone can pose a threat. Testosterone plays a huge part in regulating muscle mass and helping to build muscle, especially for individuals that are active and physically fit. If you are having trouble building muscle, it may be worth looking at low testosterone as a potential cause. Talk with your doctor or specialist about these side effects to learn more about what the testosterone imbalance is really doing to your body.
Another area of the body that testosterone is heavily involved in is sex drive and libido levels. Individuals that are experiencing low testosterone, whether they are aware of the condition or not, often see their sex drive dip dramatically. If you are experiencing a low sex drive, it could be because of low testosterone or an imbalance in your hormones. Low libido can negatively impact your intimate relationships and confidence, so if you are experiencing this side effect, it’s best that you address it sooner rather than later.
While many people consider low testosterone to be the main problem when it comes to testosterone, it is just as likely that someone experiences high testosterone. There are some symptoms that are present for both sides, but there are also symptoms that are exclusive or more likely to occur in those that are experiencing high levels of testosterone. If you want to be aware of if you have high testosterone levels, then you should look out for the following symptoms:
It’s important to note that detecting hormone imbalance is not always straightforward, so you could experience one, none, or a combination of all of these symptoms if you are having high testosterone in your body. If you do have these symptoms, it’s probably a good indication of a hormone imbalance and you should speak with a specialist that works with hormone imbalance.

Although it is far less common it is still possible to suffer from low testosterone levels as a woman especially if there is a physical problem, symptoms may include:
It’s important that we perform blood tests to establish your hormone level baseline readings and to understand where the source of the problem lies. If you believe you are suffering from either high or low testosterone levels then please get in touch to speak to our specialist testosterone doctors.

Now that you know a bit about the symptoms that are associated with testosterone hormone imbalance and what can occur when it isn’t treated, the next step is treating it. If you have never dealt with hormone imbalance or low testosterone in the past, then you may be intimidated and frightened at what needs to happen to get your hormones balanced. Millions of people worldwide each year experience hormone imbalance and it is nothing to be afraid about. Hormone imbalance is fairly common, yet still, so many people go undiagnosed. Those that are able to diagnose low testosterone or hormone imbalance, however, find themselves living much more pleasant lives without the trouble of the side effects that come along with testosterone imbalance.
One of the best ways to treat testosterone or hormone imbalance is with a customized, proven testosterone replacement therapy treatment plan. This treatment helps to evaluate the level of testosterone in the blood and replace it with the needed testosterone so that the patient can avoid the symptoms of irregular and low testosterone levels.

Once you have spoken to one of our doctors they will advise you on the best course of action to help balance your hormones back to normal levels.
