I am not a health professional. I can only relate my own experience.
Full on menopause at 39. I began bhrt at 76. Estradiol and testosterone pellet, progesterone capsules and estradiol vaginal cream. Within hours I felt a strong surge of sexual sensation and voila....my libido was back. I attribute this primarily to the testosterone but certainly it also had to do with the estradiol. Best thing I have done for myself in decades. If only I had known and if my physician had not been in the thrall of the women's health initiative study. So many other benefits too.

Thank you I never even thought about taking testosterone or estradiol I have taken meno capsules something think about again thank you just wanna get it back it’s been years I am in my 50s gonna try it
My libido after hysterectomy was restored by a direct application of testosterone (compounded cream) and estradiol (FDA cream) on the vulva and clitoris, both E &T being essential. A hysterectomy can cause less blood flow to these areas, which is necessary for libido and orgasm. For blood flow, I take a vasodilator, FDA-approved "Tadalafil" 2.5mg a day, or you can use a local vasodilator product like sildenafil cream (compounded for women) when needed. I also use an FDA estradiol 0.05 transdermal patch and local FDA vaginal estradiol, but these two routes of application did not affect my libido or orgasm. The majority of women need testosterone to restore their libido.

The other form of testosterone that I am aware is testosterone cream from a compounding pharmacy. Estradiol also comes in a patch which is placed on the abdomen twice weekly. ...once on the right side and next on the left.
Wellbutrin increases levels of dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain, neurotransmitters associated with pleasure, arousal, and motivation. It is usually used as an adjunct to hormonal therapy. It can even lead to an increase in orgasm intensity is some.
It is used off label to treat HSDD hypo active sexual desire disorder.
It is often used to counter effect the low libido side effects of other antidepressants

Not sure what your question is.... Are you asking about maintaining libido post hysterectomy?
What can I do to get my libido back it’s completely gone

If none of the above get the results you desire, or are only partially helpful, Wellbutrin has been known to help.
What exactly Wellbutrin supposed to do? I thought that’s for anxiety etc.
Wellbutrin increases levels of dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain, neurotransmitters associated with pleasure, arousal, and motivation. It is usually used as an adjunct to hormonal therapy. It can even lead to an increase in orgasm intensity is some.
