Don’t get me wrong my husband and I have a open communication in regards to this. I take medication for anxiety, depression, and for my ADHD so I feel it’s a side affect from them.. and I have had two pregnancy’s and one of them is with twins, I did have things on me checked out just Incase and I’m all good I did bring up the testosterone and I think it scared him so he said he didn’t want me to take it so what other options are out the other then the usual intimacy things.. I have never felt comfortable with that stuff

Why would some testosterone scare him? Females produce testosterone naturally, and if this natural process is not working anymore, (as with me), one has to supplement this hormone. There is nothing scary about it. I don't take that much that it causes me to masculinize, r grow hair at undesired locations or lose any hair on my head. I just take enough to be in normal female ranges, actually, I am on the low side of those ranges.
It simply allows me to function normal.

Medication for anxiety and depression can have a pronounced effect on the ability to enjoy sex and in some cases makes it almost impossible to achieve orgasm. Worth looking into.
