Hello sweaty and Pist listeners. Welcome to a special edition that we're starting to do on the

off weeks. Leanne and I do our podcast recordings every other week and on the off weeks I will be answering some

listener questions for you. We get lots of questions on our Facebook page and I try my best to

answer them on on Facebook but I thought also that there are other people who might want to know the answer to that question as well.

So I thought I'd share some questions from listeners because they're very good questions and

we've gotten some really good feedback and information from our listeners too.

So one of the questions we had was from Robin and she asked why some prescribers are resistant to prescribing testosterone for women.

Apparently she asked her provider if she could have a said that he or she does not do that.

So I wanted to explain a little bit about why that might be happening.

And I want to first start by saying that we have a lot of testosterone replacement options for men that are manufactured by

pharmaceutical companies and that has been around for a very long time.

And they are, all these options are bioidentical testosterone,

which bioidentical means that the molecule is identical to the hormone that you produce in your

body.

So they have had bio-identical testosterone replacement for men for many

many years and there are many forms for men including injectable testosterone,

gels that you apply topically,

patches that you apply to the skin.

We have some newer forms of testosterone, a new product called

Ziosed, which is also an injectable, but it's an auto injector so nobody has to fill a syringe and put a needle on it and

self inject into the muscle which is where we usually do the injection for men.
