On this episode, Dr. Sadaf welcomes back UCSF professor and sexual health expert Dr. Tami Rowen to break down everything you need to know about the complex science of testosterone therapy, progestogens, and hormone optimization in midlife women. Dr. Rowen shares her expertise to clearly explain the clinical evidence surrounding testosterone for low libido and mood. The doctors also discuss best practices when navigating hormone therapy after hormone-sensitive breast cancer. In addition to all of that, Dr. Sadaf and Dr. Rowen clear up the muddied waters on why perimenopausal mood symptoms are frequently misdiagnosed with SSRIs.
