Symptoms of Low Testosterone in Females! List Attached!

[Sparkle44]

Please see list! Don’t be fobbed off if you can relate to these symptoms get them investigated. You might have a Pituitary Gland issue!

I would recommend the following blood test screen:

- Testosterone

-DHEA

-Free Androgen Index

If your hormone levels are low and you are experiencing some of the attached symptoms. Depending where you are in terms of age / menopause... ask for further investigation.

I ended up referred to Endocrinology and they discovered a micro adenoma - small benign tumor on my Pituitary Gland which was impacting my health. I felt like death, so fatigued & low!!

Your Pituitary Gland is the size of your little finger nail but it is responsible for your sense of well-being and it regulates all your hormones.

I hope this is helpful advice!

Hi, no I haven’t had an operation on it. I am taking meds to try and shrink it. My weight has rocketed and my cholesterol is shocking but my GP doesn’t want me to go on statins?

It is probably wise to have a full pituitary blood panel done including cortisol, prolactin etc. Early morning would be the best time to have the blood drawn.
