Life is meant to be savoured and enjoyed, but for many women, menopause can feel like the spark has been extinguished. The energy, joy, and zest for life just aren’t there anymore. Too often, women are handed antidepressants to address these symptoms—but could testosterone be the real solution?

In this episode, we’re honoured to have Dr. Louise Newson—a leading voice in menopause health—join us to explore the often-overlooked role of testosterone in women’s well-being. Dr. Newson shares her expert insights on:

✅ How testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) can restore energy, mood, and libido
✅ The safety and science behind using testosterone during menopause

Dr. Newson also shares real stories of women whose lives have been transformed by TRT, explaining how testosterone impacts the brain, heart, muscles, libido, and more. Plus, she answers common questions about side effects, safety, and how to get started with therapy.

If you’re struggling with low energy, brain fog, mood swings, or a loss of vitality, this episode is a must-listen. Testosterone could be the missing piece to reclaiming your joy and well-being.
