You may have to be referred to a meno clinic as a lot of gps aren't comfortable giving it out as some don't know much about it then if doc at clinic gives you it you will get it on prescription xx

At present there is no testosterone preparation licensed for use in women unfortunately so I think you would need to get a specialist to perscribe it then write to your gp who should then carry on with it but they dont have to.
