Competition-linked bursts of testosterone are fundamental aspect of human biology, study of Amazonian tribe suggests


Posted by Dr. Michael White, Updated on December 25th, 2017

Reading Time: 2 minutes ScienceDaily (Mar. 27, 2012) It's a rough life for the Tsimane, an isolated indigenous group in Bolivia. They make a living by hunting and foraging in forests, fishing in streams and clearing land by hand to grow crops. Their rugged lifestyle might imply that Tsimane men have elevated testosterone to maintain the physical activity required to survive each day. But new research shows that Tsimane ("chi-MAH-nay") men have a third less baseline testosterone compared with men living in the United States, where life is less physically demanding. And unlike men in the U.S., the Bolivian foragers-farmers do not show declines … Read more »

Testosterone Boosters Unnecessary?


Posted by Dr. Michael White, Updated on December 24th, 2017

Reading Time: 2 minutes Low testosterone, or hypogonadism, is a legitimate health problem. Men who have it can suffer a variety of conditions, from low energy and sex drive to depression, weight gain and even bone loss.

That hasnt prevented a wave of interest in testosterone-replacement therapy. At the top of the hierarchy, there are the prescription-only gels and injections that replace the … Read more »

Reading Time: < 1 minute (See also Male Hypogonadism in Children.) Hypogonadism is defined as testosterone deficiency with associated symptoms or signs, deficiency of spermatozoa production, or both.

Treatment varies with etiology but typically includes gonadotropin-releasing hormone, gonadotropin, or testosterone replacement.

Male testosterone levels may weaken vaccine response

Previous research showed men typically experience more severe viral and other microbial infections than women, who tend to mount stronger immune responses to infections and vaccinations.

Reading Time: 2 minutes Women may drool over George Clooney and Brad Pitt, but their lust may be more for these macho guys' immune systems than their pretty faces and chiseled abs, new research suggests.
