ORIGINAL: Domin8tingUrDrmz I've read in a medical mag (while at the doctor's office, I do not recall which mag), that women's levels of testosterone do not increase, instead their levels of estrogen decrease, which makes the testosterone more prevalent when they reach menopause. In the same article, there were findings that the reverse is true with males, and their sex drive decreases (or problems arise) due to testosterone levels decreasing, allowing estrogen to be more prevalent than when they were younger. Thank you. This is more along the lines of what i was getting at. When i was taking anti-testosterones and estrogens (for 8 years) it had a dramatic affect on my libido. It was a slow change, not something that happened over night, but eventually i felt like my sex drive when from 60 mph down to about 10 mph. Sex no longer became important, nor did masturbation. But intimacy remained very important. Intimacy with a lover was what i craved... not a potential orgasm. On a blood test... men have testosterone levels in the range of something like 250-1000. Women have a normal testosterone range of 10-75. When my numbers started hitting around 20 my sex drive was gone. Dead. Sometimes i wonder if people realize how the two are tied together. And if you have a high or low sex drive - it's just a part of your chemical makeup. Too, if a woman has a high sex drive, i wonder if she has high testosterone levels, (and consequently increased hair growth on her body) or is her drive high for some other, psychological reason?
