My doctor…in Augusta, Georgia wrote an article about the benefits of testosterone and estrogen. I have no ovaries because my mother, aunt and grandmother all died from ovarian cancer. I receive replacement hormones usually every 6 months but waited 10 months and unfortunately had every side effect…Heart palpitations, memory loss, sweating, melancholia, dry skin, dry eyes, asthma, lethargy, dizziness and sensitivity to noise, lights as well as a very sensitive parasympathetic system..
My dad has the onset of alzhimers and thought he could use testosterone replacement.
My doctor treats men too and there was a guy there yesterday who said his Testosterone level was at 100 when he started. He began being treated 10 years ago and he says he feels 18 again. He looked great…His skin, hair, eyes and I believe he was in his 50’s. Women lose estrogen as they age but men also lose testosterone as they age.
If you want to know more please contact me through my email.

This is not my doctor, but the article was easier to read.
By the way…I have been on this therapy for 12 years.
