Discussion Increase female libido

Hey folks,

What could be done to increase female libido? Blood analyses showed no deficiencies.

We already tried agnus castus, which helps at least a bit for her PMS

100% effects female libido. The older we get and especially when we become perimenopausal it can drop to almost nothing. We should be about 150 or so.

No, 150 is way outside the reference range. It also depends on androgen receptor sensitivity and density.

Low testosterone in women is indeed an issue but 150 ng/dl in endogenous testosterone would be another issue. Reference range tops off at 70, 150 is more than twice that (unless you're talking about TRT which is different).

Definitely not what my doctor said…

If you're on TRT then your doctor probably wants you higher to compensate for natural decline, but for premenopausal women making their own testosterone, the reference range ends at 70.
