Is Androgel Safe for Women?

[Tatiana]

Hi, I'm new to this forum and have questions! I am 49 and need advice on Androgel to increase libido. I have always been very athletic and worked out with weights, swim, and yoga. About 5 years ago , I contracted a lung disease (heavy metal... Beryllium) from a job I had worked for 24 years. It has affected my immune system and I now have fibromyalgia. I have had a total hysterectomy and take Estrogen Methyltestos F.S. Tab; however I have no sex drive. It is hard on my marriage. I still have good muscle tone and will be back in the gym soon. I also have low thyroid and am taking 1/2 of 15 mg Synthyroid. I need advice on how to start Androgel. My husband has it and says it is safe to rub a small amount on ankles. I'm not sure how much??? Help

Welcome to the board luv!
Blood work first. You need a baseline to compare to if you start hormones later on. Test may help, but I'm real leary about discussing doses, due to very small amounts with women.
Good luck!
