"PROCESS TO INCREASE TESTOSTERONE AND RELATED STEROID CONCENTRATIONS IN WOMEN". The present invention relates to methods, kits and combinations for treating, preventing or reducing the risk of developing testosterone deficiency in a female mammal in need thereof or related to a testosterone deficiency in a female mammal in need thereof. The present invention also relates to a process of administering a steroid to the synthetic testosterone pathway, for example testosterone in a mammal in need thereof. In addition, methods, kits, combinations and compositions may be used in conjunction with other pharmaceutical agents effective in treating, preventing, or reducing the risk of developing a testosterone deficiency. The processes, kits, combinations and compositions may also be used in conjunction with a pharmaceutically effective amount of an estrogen, for example estradiol. In addition, the methods, kits, combinations and compositions may be used in conjunction with a pharmacologically effective amount of another steroid or pharmaceutical agent that increases serum testosterone levels in a mammal, for example, methyltestosterone. |
