Testosterone Cream

Testosterone is often thought of as a “male hormone,” but it plays an important role in women’s health, too. Produced in small amounts by the ovaries and adrenal glands, testosterone supports libido, mood, muscle mass, metabolism, and even cognitive function. Levels naturally decline with age—by about 50% by the time you’re 40.

Testosterone Cream acts on the brain and body to support:

• Sexual desire and arousal

• Lean muscle mass and metabolism

• Energy and physical stamina

• Cognitive performance

• Bone strength and density

Midi’s Testosterone Cream is designed for women’s unique needs:

• Tailored for women (instead of using male therapies dosed down for women)

• Low-dose, transdermal application

• Clinician-guided care based on symptoms, not just lab values

• Ongoing safety monitoring through lab work and check-ins

Yes. Testosterone often complements estrogen and progesterone therapy. Each hormone supports different symptoms. Your clinician will help you find the right balance.

Apply the recommended amount of cream to your inner thigh or as directed by your clinician.

Side effects are rare at the low doses we prescribe, but can include:

• Mild acne or oily skin

• Increased hair growth (especially at application site)

• Voice deepening (rare and typically dose-related)

• Mood changes

Your clinician will monitor your levels closely and adjust your dose if needed to help prevent these side effects.

No. Testosterone can be safely used by premenopausal women, including those on birth control. Your clinician will also consider alternative solutions, including FDA-approved libido treatments, if appropriate.

"Normal" lab ranges can be broad. If you're experiencing symptoms and could benefit, testosterone treatment may still be appropriate. We treat based on how you feel, not just what the numbers say.

Testosterone is not a weight-loss drug, but it can help build lean muscle and support metabolic health, which may make your body more responsive to exercise and diet changes.

If you stop, the benefits will gradually fade. Libido, energy, or muscle tone may return to prior levels. There’s no withdrawal risk, but always check with your clinician before stopping.

You may want to avoid using Midi’s Testosterone Cream if you: 

• Have a known allergy to the medication or its ingredients

• Are pregnant or breastfeeding

• Are in active cancer treatment with chemotherapy on an aromatase inhibitor

Testosterone pellets can’t be removed or adjusted after insertion, which increases the risk of side effects. Midi’s topical Testosterone Cream offers safer, flexible dosing that can be paused or adjusted at any time.
