Testosterone pellets, approved by the FDA for men with low testosterone levels, are designed to alleviate symptoms such as reduced sex drive, energy, and muscle mass. For perimenopausal or menopausal women, pellets are used off-label to address mood swings, energy levels, and libido, although no testosterone-only therapies are FDA-approved for women.
These treatments can pose risks due to their unregulated nature, high cost, and the inability to adjust the dosage after administration. There are numerous variables that contribute to their potential unsafety.
It is advisable to focus on what is safe, such as FDA-approved MHT/HRT therapies.
