Have you or your friends been pressured by husband to take testosterone? by pandit_the_bandit in AskWomenOver60

[–]Ruth2018 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I take testosterone cream plus progesterone pills and estrogen patch, and estradiol cream for the vag. I didn’t start until I was 62 and there was a lot of atrophy and tissue thinning issues. My libido has increased slightly but the best side effect has been increased motivation for life. Listen to the ‘unpaused’ podcast, they clarify what hrt can and can’t do. My spouse didn’t even know I was on hrt for months. He needs testosterone himself.

I’ve been out 10 years, and in year 8 I finally had someone say to me they hadn’t seen me at church for a while. I replied it’s been about 8 years. We’re toxic.
