At this point, she is just following the Dr’s advice. Plus she seems to like the convenience of the troche and they taste good to her so that’s always a plus.
OK, good luck. I had a couple of guys use them prior to workouts or sex. Or, sexual workouts?
JUST RIGHT… Maybe not enough. I like to learn!
This is not a plot for women unless they have a scrotum. Women do great with a once daily peri vaginal application of a compounded cream. There is NEVER a need for a female to inject. They can but there is no need.
Hey @studhammer, just wanted to check in to see how this is affecting your wife. Is she doing well? Any sides? Has she been back to see her doctor? I’ve been exploring test, mostly creams, and your post peaked my interest.

When it comes to female HRT, its far more complicated and a balance does have to be achieved. A professional on female HRT would be the best way to approach this. With that said, my wife is on HRT, and she takes sermorelin troches, pregnolone, progesterone along with T cream. Shes going to switch over to Test pellets which have been very successful in other patients. As for men, Im not a believer in pellets since the levels need to be higher and more manageable. As for women, the pellets are slowly titrated up or down after testing. Her Doc is devoted to female HRT and was recommended by a female retired IFBB bodybuilding champion, whom we both know. I will have to say that after 5 months the change is apparent. I completely understand why this thread was started and the concern with what was prescribed to your wife with no testing. A baseline wouldve been nice to begin with.
Thank you for asking?
There are some positive changes. She said she is thinking more “sexy thoughts” but her libido hasn’t really improved. With that said, she is a division director at work and has a ton of responsibility which occupies most of her thoughts. From what little I know about women, its hard for them to disconnect with everything going in in their mind and think about sex.
There is a professional clinic opening very near us that she is waiting on. Its a franschise but a gym buddy’s wife went to another location and had good results. For the mean time, she will continue the troches.
Yes, her Gyno basically said, “here try this”. As we all know, this is pretty standard.
UPDATE: The troches weren’t really doing anything for my wife so she decided to visit a HRT clinic that we had heard good things about. She had a full hormone panel workup and her E2, test, progesterone, thyroid, Vit D, Vit B-12 were in the BASEMENT. Some were almost “Non Detect”.
Dr. recommended pellets for both E2 and Test and she will get those inserted this week. Progesterone and thyroid are oral. Plus she will be getting B12 shots and a Lipo C shot which is supposed to help metabolize fat.
We’re both excited. It was good to know that she felt the way she did because of a real issue and that it can be addressed. I’m excited that my wife will feel better about herself and in general.
Hope this helps any brothers out there who’s wives are changing and may not recognize it.

UPDATE #2
So my wife has been on pellets for about 6 weeks now and it has a been a GAME CHANGER!
They put her on a combo of both testosterone and estrogen pellets and an oral progesterone taken nightly. They also beefed up her thyroid script and prescribed phentermine for appetite.
graphic language: Her sex drive has come back full fledge. Her clit is super sensitive and she is having orgasms again and she is able to get wet on her own. She couldn’t do any of this before and most of the time I went down on her, I was getting “tapped out” because she just couldn’t feel anything or get aroused. Now she is having really strong orgasms which of course makes me feel like the STUDHAMMER! LOL
I know this is anecdotal but we all know women go thru a ton of shit with their hormones and we try to help them as best we can. If your wife/partner is unresponsive or tired all the time or can’t lose weight, they need to stop messing around see a good hormone doc. It will be better for your whole family.

Have you ever calculated elimination half life for T cream on labia using multiple hourly LCMS time points? Lets compare numbers. I may have a plot or two.
Thanks for this but my wife was put on pellets about a year ago and is doing great. Totally changed her life for the better.
