Testosterone levels in postmenopausal women are generally lower than in premenopausal women. However, they don’t completely disappear. While testosterone is primarily associated with male characteristics, it also plays important roles in women’s health, including:
- Bone health: Testosterone helps maintain bone density and strength, reducing the risk of osteoporosis.
- Muscle mass and strength: Testosterone contributes to muscle mass and strength, which can improve overall function and quality of life.
