GROWING OLD

Women's levels of testosterone fall with age, and this is thought to be why many older women experience a major drop in the number of orgasms and a decrease in their intensity. 'Testosterone really is the orgasm hormone,' says Dr Maupin, author of a new book, The Secret Female Hormone: How Testosterone Replacement Can Change Your Life.

'It's not the only hormone involved, but it stimulates certain important hormones, for example oxytocin which we require for orgasm. It also increases dopamine and nitric oxide which boosts blood flow to the pelvis.'

She believes more middle-aged women should be offered testosterone replacement.
