Perimenopause Testosterone

Meaning

Perimenopause Testosterone refers to the circulating levels of the androgen hormone testosterone during the transitional phase leading up to the final menstrual period, known as perimenopause. Although primarily associated with male physiology, testosterone is a crucial hormone in women, supporting libido, bone density, and muscle mass. Levels of this hormone typically begin to decline in the years preceding menopause, contributing to various clinical symptoms.
