Hi everyone, I was prescribed testosterone for low libido about 2 years ago now(I was already on Evorelle patches plus Mirena) and it definitely helped. My testosterone was almost zero before. I was totally uninterested in sex. After another appointment with meno specialist my testosterone was changed from Testogel to Testim . She said this was because they didn’t generally use testogel I think this was due to it being in a pump and the dosage being for men, but I’d been managing to just get a pea sized amount. Anyway since starting Testim in November I’ve had worse side effects, hair worse on my face and neck plus I’m sure my hair is thinner at hairline. I’m waiting for another appointment but I’ve cut down to every other day now as so worried about this especially hair loss. All this is complicated by the fact that I have low sex hormone binding globulin had this since my 3Os so I have more free androgens in my body. I’ve always had to wax my upper lip and obviously as I’ve got older it’s got worse but I’m very hairy now on my neck and have to wax that too. Anyone else experienced this ? Do I need to increase the oestrogen to counter it ?
