Low Testosterone in Women: Signs, Symptoms, and What to Do About It
When we think of testosterone, we often associate it with men. However, women also produce testosterone, and it plays a crucial role in maintaining energy, mood, muscle tone, and overall well-being. If testosterone levels drop too low, it can lead to a range of symptoms that affect daily life.
In this blog, we’ll explore the signs of low testosterone in women, how it impacts health, and how Chronos can help restore balance.
Understanding Testosterone in Women
Testosterone is an essential hormone produced primarily by the ovaries and adrenal glands. It contributes to muscle strength, bone density, sex drive, and mood stability. As women age, testosterone levels naturally decline, but some experience more significant drops that lead to noticeable symptoms.
Symptoms of Low Testosterone in Women
If you’re experiencing the following symptoms, low testosterone may be the cause:
1. Persistent Fatigue
Feeling tired all the time, even after a full night’s sleep? Testosterone helps regulate energy levels, so low levels can leave you feeling sluggish and drained.
2. Decreased Libido
One of the most common symptoms of low testosterone in women is a decline in sex drive. If your interest in intimacy has significantly diminished, hormonal imbalance could be a factor.
3. Unexplained Weight Gain & Muscle Loss
Testosterone supports muscle tone and metabolism. When levels drop, women may struggle with weight gain—especially around the midsection—and notice a decrease in muscle strength.
4. Mood Changes & Depression
Testosterone plays a key role in mood regulation. Women with low testosterone often experience increased anxiety, irritability, or even depression.
5. Difficulty Concentrating (Brain Fog)
Struggling with focus, memory, or mental clarity? Low testosterone can contribute to brain fog, making daily tasks feel overwhelming.
6. Thinning Hair & Dry Skin
Hormonal imbalances can lead to weaker hair, thinning, and dry skin. If your hair is shedding more than usual, low testosterone might be part of the issue.
7. Weak Bones & Joint Pain
Testosterone supports bone density, and low levels can contribute to weaker bones and joint discomfort, increasing the risk of osteoporosis.
What Causes Low Testosterone in Women?
Several factors can contribute to declining testosterone levels, including:
- Aging: Levels naturally drop after age 30.
- Hormonal Disorders: Conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or thyroid imbalances can impact testosterone production.
- Stress & Poor Sleep: Chronic stress and lack of sleep disrupt hormone production.
- Ovary Removal (Oophorectomy): Women who have had their ovaries removed experience an immediate drop in testosterone.
- Certain Medications: Birth control, steroids, and chemotherapy can lower testosterone levels.
How Chronos Can Help with Low Testosterone in Women
At Chronos Body, Health & Wellness, we take a personalized approach to hormone health. If you suspect low testosterone, here’s how we can help:
1. Comprehensive Hormone Testing
Our specialists conduct in-depth hormone evaluations to measure testosterone and other key hormone levels. This allows us to develop a customized treatment plan based on your individual needs.
2. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for Women
For women experiencing significant hormonal imbalances, we offer hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to restore optimal testosterone levels. Led by expert hormone doctor, Dr. Mace Scott, our treatments are tailored to help improve energy, mood, libido, and overall well-being of women suffering from the symptoms of low testosterone and unbalanced hormones.
3. IV Therapy & Nutritional Support
Nutritional deficiencies can impact testosterone production. Our IV hydration treatments and wellness injections, including NAD+ therapy, help support hormonal balance, boost energy, and enhance overall health.
4. Fitness & Weight Management Services
