Testosterone update...
Okay, so FINALLY Beth and I got to her doctor yesterday to find out the results of her latest blood test. (Measuring whether there has been any improvement in her testosterone levels after two months of taking a prescription testosterone pill...)
I had made a guess that the doctor would say "some improvement, but still way under", and I was bang on. Her test results showed that her testosterone levels are still only 1/4 to 1/3 of a normal person's. Well, that IS definitely an improvement over last time, where we found her levels were zero. So, doc has upped the dosage from one dose every two days, to one dose per day.
So, now we wait and see. Oh, GOD, am I hoping it starts kicking in. Just once to have her drag me into the bedroom would be SO great.
On the up side, the testosterone treatments have given her more energy, and have almost eliminated her migraine headaches. She used to get them once or twice a week, while these last couple of months she's only had a total of three, I think. Even if it doesn't help her libido, killing those headaches alone would make the effort more than worthwhile.
