What the hell is happening

Hey all, first off I am not complaining, but what the hell is happening...
So 40 and primary ovarian insufficiency been on oestrogel and progesterone for about 6 months and 8 weeks ago started on testosterone too.

For the best part of 4 years I have had zero interest in sex, maintenance sex only and enjoyed once going but the thought was not appealing. And no masturbating in the same time too. My husband has asked occasionally and I have said I don't which he didn't believe..as sex was that infrequent. The past two weeks of he can't give it me, I am sorting myself out morning, noon and night (good job I work from home). I'm back to feeling like a randy 21 year old and horny all the time. Does this pass? (Kinda hoping you all say no) And in the past 4 weeks I have gained 5 pounds having previously battled to gain weight past 8 stone 1. Is this all normal?

Ah yes, I had this, it lasted about 2 years and was fantastic, just in peri menopause. Enjoy! Had another great patch when I was briefly on testosterone….as part of HRT…unfortunately had to come off it.
