Georgia Southern SARMs - Is Low Testosterone therapy Important? Georgia Southern SARMs ( Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators ) Symptom for low testosterone in women can be similar to other conditions such as Hypothyroidism, Depression, Iron deficiency, and low levels of other hormones such as estrogen and progesterone so it’s always important to have all hormone levels checked, including thyroid, to determine what’s causing symptoms. Lab tests will give the full “story” of what’s going on. Though it’s much less common, some women have too much testosterone and it’s just as important to see a doctor for this as it is for low testosterone. Symptoms can include: Excess body hair Excess hair on chin or upper lip Deepening voice Acne and/or oily skin Balding around hairline Increased muscle mass/change in body shape Absence of periods
Research and studies in the past on low testosterone in women were not consistent and findings were varied regarding testosterone therapy for women. For example, one study associated an increase in abdominal weight gain after taking testosterone, however those results have been deemed “flawed” because the women participating had other hormonal imbalances going on that were not taken into consideration. More recently though, research is showing that testosterone therapy is important and plays a big role in both how women feel, especially in regards to their libido and staying fit, lean, and active, and in their long-term health. Women who were given testosterone therapy lost two times more body fat and gained more muscle mass than women given a placebo. The women taking the testosterone therapy gained considerable lean muscle mass over a nine-month period (which helps you to lose weight). Both groups were on the same low-fat diet and exercise regime during the course of study. Additionally, studies suggest that a deficiency in testosterone can be a “key predictive factor” for heart disease in menopausal women or women who have had hysterectomies, and that these women have three times more risk in developing cardiovascular disease – so treating low testosterone in women is important. Women only need a very small percentage of testosterone supplementation compared to what men need. When testosterone is balanced, women report that they feel more like they did when they were younger and have pep in their step again, with better mood and motivation. Entering the hormonal
shifts that occur with peri-menopause and menopause can really have an impact on life and it’s always rewarding to feel like oneself again!
