What causes low testosterone?

Please help me stop feeling utterly lost and hopeless!

Is anybody able to offer insight into what might cause low testosterone in women - other than the menopause which can almost certainly be ruled out in my case.

I am feeling desperately worried that my low testosterone blood test results are connected to a problem with my hypothalamus/pituitary gland? I am being tested again in 3 months but that feels an awfully long time away and I am struggling.

I skipped one period. I have PCOS (which usually causes high testosterone).

I am quite run down but also have a toddler and 5 year old so perhaps that is to be expected?

I just feel very anxious about this and hope that it might have been caused by stress (I was very stressed)? Or something less scary...

Thank you
