E39: TESTOSTERONE - The Female Hormone ft Dr Zoe Hodson

Body Positive Mum

This episode is such an important one. I chat with Dr Zoe Hodson, GP and menopause specialist, all about testosterone and the gender bias we’re still facing as women! If I can ask just one thing of you from this episode it’s to access the template email (link below), add your own voice to it and send it to your local CCG formulary for your council area. We NEED more, we DESERVE more xx thank you for your support and your stance with Zoe, myself and other female hormone deficiency supporters. The possible prescribing of Testosterone to women via the NHS is currently a complete postcode lottery. Each area of the country has a CCG prescribing formulary and if you search on the CCG formulary for your area and then search ‘testosterone’ then click on it and see who is ‘allowed’ to have their hormones replaced. If there is no sign of Testosterone being considered an appropriate treatment for women in your area please contact the CCG and ask why using the template here https://menopausesupport.co.uk/?page_id=13505
