Posted by Dr. Michael White, Updated on December 2nd, 2017

Reading Time: < 1 minuteLondon, Feb 3 (IANS) Testosterone drives egocentricism at the cost of cooperating with others, consequently affecting group decisions, a study reveals. Collective problem solving can provide benefits over individual decisions as we are able to share our information and experiences, said a new study from Wellcome Trust's Centre for Neuroimaging at the University College London. Now researchers have shown that the testosterone has the opposite effect -- it makes people act less cooperative and more egocentric, the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B reported.

Testosterone Deficiency, Erectile Dysfunction, and …


Posted by Dr. Michael White, Updated on December 2nd, 2017

Reading Time: < 1 minuteTestosterone is a hormone produced by the testicles and is responsible for the proper development of male sexual characteristics. Testosterone is also important for maintaining muscle bulk, adequate levels of red blood cells, bone growth, a sense of well-being, and sexual function. Inadequate production of testosterone is not a common cause of erectile dysfunction; however, when ED does occur due to decreased testosterone production, testosterone replacement therapy may improve the problem. As a man ages, the amount of testosterone in his body gradually declines. This natural decline starts after age 30 and continues throughout life. Other causes of low testosterone … Read more »

Men with high testosterone may be more honest: study


Posted by Dr. Michael White, Updated on December 1st, 2017

Reading Time: 2 minutesThe hormone testosterone has already been linked to promoting aggressive and risky behavior, but now it may have another side effect: that of truth serum. In a study of more than 90 men, scientists from the University of Bonn, Germany, found that subjects treated with a dose of testosterone before the study told fewer lies than those who received a placebo. "Testosterone has always been said to promote aggressive and risky behavior and posturing," says researcher and neuroscientist Bernard Weber. However, more recent studies indicate that it also fosters social behavior. Prior research has suggested that the hormone may actually … Read more »

'Manly' Fingers Make For Strong Jawline in Young Boys


Posted by Dr. Michael White, Updated on December 1st, 2017

Reading Time: 2 minutesHands are keys to the past, even if there isn't much past to tell. A glance at a boy's digit ratio — the relative length of index to ring finger —shows if he was exposed to high testosterone levels before birth. These testosterone levels even lead to "manlier" faces, even before the boy hits puberty, the research suggests. In the uterus, before a baby is born, testosterone seems to have what the researchers call an "organizing effect" on the face — it helps controls how the face and other parts of the body (including the sex organs and yes, the … Read more »

In popular culture, the phrase battle of the sexes seems to pit the male hormone (testosterone) against the female (estrogen).

Reading Time: 2 minutesProvided by Fred Lewsey, University of Cambridge Pre-birth exposure to high levels of the male sex hormone testosterone has already been shown to confer evolutionary advantages for men: strength of sex drive, sperm count, cardiovascular efficiency and spatial awareness, for example. Now, latest research on marathon runners using finger length as a marker for hormone exposure shows that people who experienced higher testosterone in the womb are also better at distance running a correlation particularly strong in men, although also present in women.

How to Deal with Testosterone Decline – Mercola.com


Posted by Dr. Michael White, Updated on March 20th, 2016

Reading Time: 2 minutesStory at-a-glance + Testosterone is an androgenic sex hormone produced by the testicles (and in smaller amounts in the ovaries of women), and is often associated with "manhood." Testosterone levels in men naturally decline with age beginning at age 30 and continue to do so as men advance in years. Unfortunately, widespread chemical exposure is causing this decline to occur in men as early as childhood. Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) such as phthalates, BPA, PFOA, and metalloestrogens lurk inside your house, leaching from human products such as personal hygiene products, chemical cleansers, or contraceptive drugs. They may also end up in … Read more »
