Testosterone use jumps 135 per cent amid sex drive drop
NHS data reveals a 135 per cent increase in testosterone prescriptions between 2021 and 2024. This surge coincides with national statistics showing average monthly sexual activity fell from five times to three between 1990 and 2010. Users like former dancer Alan Reeves claim the therapy restored their energy and libido after years of struggle. Researchers expect upcoming survey results to confirm this downward trend in intimacy continues across all groups.
