Hi ladies
So 8 weeks ago I paid privately to have testosterone pellet implant inserted, I am still waiting for something
to happen, I used testim gel for nearly a year and that did nothing, I was using extra too to try and get some sort of feelings back!! I feel no difference what so ever with this implant too ! I am 47 years old and have been in the peri stages for nearly 3
years. I have a mirena coil and take 2mg of elleste
Has anyone else had this implant and what did it do for you ?
Im desperate to have some energy back and my libido
xxxx

So you have lost your energy? Can you get a full thyroid panel done? Ask your doctor to do it for you, they probably won't do the full panel, but if they do TSH and Free T4 it's a start.

Thanks for your reply, yes I have an underachieve thyroid and take 150mg of thyroxine already
last time it was tested was a few months ago. xx

Muzza the mirena is notorious for quashing libido, it's one of the downsides unfortunately. Also, tablet hrt can have negative effects on libido. Have you considered transdermal methods as that may help?x
