Studies have shown that by the time a woman is 35 she is producing half the testosterone she produced at her peak levels in her late teens or early twenties. 

Signs of a testosterone deficiency can be:

• Low energy 
• Low sex drive
• Mood swings
• Weight gain
• Reduced stamina with exercise
• Poor sleep

Perimenopause is the time period where hormone production is starting to decrease, and the menstrual cycles are less predictable, and ovulation may or may not occur every month. Once all menstrual cycles have stopped for a period of 1 year the women is menopausal.
