It is difficult to tell but simple blood tests can rule out common hormonal abnormality, please see your doctor.

It is not unusual for this to happen to women in their 60's and 70's. Seems more like "Re-Creative" Energy Surge than hormonal issues. Happens to some older men too! Unfortunately the use of Hormones to increase production of plants and animals for food have confused issues and increased the "invincible sources" of Hormones and side effects in the body. A good workup with appropriate Labs can help
