Hormone Health Hub: Expert Insights on Testing, Balance & Better Living — low libido

Hormonal contraception suppresses ovarian function, which means saliva and blood spot hormone test results will appear artificially low — but this doesn’t mean hormone levels at the tissue level are low. This guide explains how to interpret hormone test results correctly when using the pill, patch, ring or IUD, and when to collect your sample for the most meaningful data.

From the age of 45, most men experience a gradual decline in testosterone and DHEA — yet many put their symptoms down to “just getting old.” Andropause is real, measurable and manageable.
