There are many factors that affect libido including hormones. You can increase your libido with several FDA approved medications including Vylessi and Addyi for women. Testosterone can work too but can increase your risk of acne again.

Thank you for your question. I highly recommend you consult with an endocrinologist or OBGYN to further evaluate your symptoms and order the appropriate testing. Take care and good luck.
