Reading Time: 2 minutesA new study on female hormones and sexual desire finds that estrogen, not testosterone, can boost libido in a woman's natural cycle, while progesterone deadens it, they say. Not coincidentally, this increase in desire works in favor of a woman's fertility. "We found two hormonal signals that had opposite effects on sexual motivation," said lead author James Roney of the University of California Santa Barbara. "Estrogen was having a positive effect, but with a two-day lag. Progesterone was having a persistent negative effect, both for current day, day before, and two days earlier." Roney and his team recruited undergraduate students … Read more »

(UPI Photo/Brian Kersey) License photo YONKERS, N.Y., May 20 (UPI) -- Investigators at Consumer Reports say the directions for testosterone gel say the gel is flammable until dry and avoid smoking or an open flame until dry. Consumer Reports said testosterone drugs such as Androgel 1.62 percent and Axiron, which increase a man's libido, are already associated with an increased risk of heart attacks, strokes and other cardiovascular events in men.

Reading Time: 2 minutesUsing a testosterone gel in addition to Viagra doesn't make the little blue pill work any better, according to a new study. The report's lead researcher said testosterone is typically prescribed to men who have both low testosterone levels and symptoms such as little interest in sex or low bone and muscle mass. But, "there's a tremendous amount of clinical judgment" that goes into that, said Dr. Matthew Spitzer, from the Boston University School of Medicine. "People are certainly being prescribed and using these medications at increasing amounts." According to Spitzer, studies have suggested that about one-quarter to one-third of … Read more »

(UPI/Ezio Petersen) License photo STANFORD, Calif., April 30 (UPI) -- Men higher in testosterone are more easily threatened and as a result they overcompensate when their masculinity is threatened, U.S. researchers say. Robb Willer, an associate professor of sociology at Stanford University, and colleagues enlisted 54 undergraduate men at the University of Iowa who took a gender identity survey about their assertiveness or other qualities typically associated with masculinity or femininity. They were then given feedback the men believed was based on the survey but … Read more »

Reading Time: 3 minutesAug. 13, 2013 The everyday physical activities of an isolated group of forager-farmers in central Bolivia are providing valuable information about how industrialization and its associated modern amenities may impact health and wellness. Studying short-term spikes in the testosterone levels of Tsimane men, UC Santa Barbara anthropologists Ben Trumble and Michael Gurven have found that the act of chopping down trees -- a physically demanding task that is critical to successful farming and food production -- results in greater increases in testosterone than does a directly competitive activity such as soccer. Their research appears in the early online edition of … Read more »
