Davis of the Stanford University School of Medicine and an investigator with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and colleagues identified a link between certain genes affected by testosterone and antibody responses to an influenza vaccine. 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. In this study, Davis and colleagues analyzed the antibody responses of 53 … Read more »

Reading Time: 2 minutesWomen 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. Men with high levels of the sex hormone testosterone are seen as more hunky — and these same men have stronger immune responses, researchers report Tuesday (Feb. 21) in the journal Nature Communications. The findings suggest that women may be attracted to manly facial types because the macho look signals good health. Researchers led by Fhionna Moore of Abertay University in the United Kingdom recruited 74 Latvian men in … Read more »

Reading Time: 2 minutesWashington, October 11 (ANI): Testosterone is considered the male hormone, standing for aggression and posturing, but researchers from the University of Bonn have now revealed that this sex hormone surprisingly also fosters social behaviour. In play situations, subjects who had received testosterone clearly lied less frequently than individuals who had only received a placebo, researchers around Prof. Dr. Armin Falk, an economist from the University of Bonn, found. The hormone testosterone stands for typically male attributes - it fosters the forming of the sexual characteristics, increases libido and muscle building. Women also have this sex hormone, but to a much … Read more »

Reading Time: < 1 minuteLondon, Dec 9 (IANS) Testosterone shots can not only overcome low libido in men but also protect them against heart attacks, says a US study. A five-shot course of the hormone boosted male sex drive as well as their fitness levels, mood and their ability to concentrate. They also reported weight loss. The incidence of low libido dropped from 64 percent to 10 percent after treatment. The study was conducted on men with medically deficient levels of testosterone, known as hypogonadism. Experts believe the findings could be relevant to the far larger group of ageing men whose testosterone has simply … Read more »

Reading Time: 1 minuteFRIDAY, May 31 (HealthDay News) -- Male athletes who choose to wear the color red in competition have higher levels of the male hormone testosterone than men who pick the color blue, a British study suggests. Men who wear red could be sending an unconscious signal about their competitiveness to their opponents, the researchers suggested in the study, which is to be published in an upcoming issue of the journal Psychological Science. "The research shows that there is something special about the color red in competition, and that it is associated with our underlying biological systems," study leader Daniel Farrelly, … Read more »

Reading Time: 2 minutesWhen most of us hear the word testosterone we think of puberty and men in their twenties sowing their oats. We also tend to think of bulky body builders pumped up and maxed out. However testosterone plays many more roles in the health of both men and women than many of us realize. And low levels of testosterone in both sexes may cause serious negative health consequences. Whats more is it seems that testosterone levels in both men and women are getting lower at earlier ages. In fact, its estimated that twenty-five percent of men over the age of forty-five … Read more »

Reading Time: 2 minutesIn the early 1900s, Kansas was home to one of the most financially successful doctors in American history John Brinkley who practiced in Milford. He became famous or infamous to some for procedures which involved the transfer of tissue from one species to another; specifically, transplanting goat testicles into humans as a treatment of sexual dysfunction. Brinkley was scrutinized and eventually exposed as a charlatan and stripped of his license to practice medicine; however, his work was partially responsible for inspiring serious investigators to discover testosterone. In the mid-1930s, researchers Adolf Butenandt and Leopold Ruzicka were awarded the Nobel Prize … Read more »

Reading Time: < 1 minuteHOUSTON, June 24 (UPI) -- A drop in testosterone levels in men as they age is more likely to result from smoking, obesity and depression -- not aging, researchers in Australia say. Dr. Gary Wittert, professor of medicine at the University of Adelaide in Adelaide in Australia, and colleagues analyzed testosterone levels in more than 1,500 men who had measurements taken at two clinic visits five years apart. Men who had abnormal values, were taking medications or had medical conditions known to affect hormones, were excluded. The men included in the analysis involved 1,382 men -- ages 35 to 80 … Read more »

Picture: Anja Johnson, flickr.com Source: Supplied SCIENTISTS have new evidence about why women live longer than men, from a study of historical data showing castrated Koreans far outlived their non-eunuch contemporaries. The study, published in the scientific journal Current Biology used detailed genealogical records of the Imperial nobility during Korea's Joseon dynasty, which spanned more than 500 years from the late 1300s to the early 1900s. According to the data, most men, including kings and royal family … Read more »

Grohol, Psy.D. on October 1, 2013 New research suggests testosterone can promote generosity, but only when there is no threat of competition. The study is published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science. Study findings show that testosterone is implicated in behaviors that help to foster and maintain social relationships, indicating that its effects are more nuanced than previously thought. Testosterone may mediate competitive and potentially antisocial behavior when social challenges or threats need to be confronted and handled, said lead researcher Maarten Boksem, Ph.D., … Read more »
