Cancer is a wake-up call. I answered it in the fall of 2018 when I received a shocking ovarian cancer diagnosis at the age of 45.

Broncearme era parte de mi rutina regular de belleza y me sentía incompleta si no lo hacía. Nunca pensé que cancelaría mi membresía en el salón de bronceado al que fui durante mucho tiempo, pero ese día llegó. El formulario de cancelación solicitaba un motivo.

Testosterone isn’t only a “men’s hormone” — women make it too, just in much smaller amounts. In women, testosterone helps with sexual desire and arousal and plays a role in bone, muscle and brain health.
