Abstract in brief

  • Testosterone is crucial for maintaining mental and emotional balance, affecting mood, behavior, self-perception, and overall quality of life in men across all ages.
  • Low testosterone levels, especially in older men, can lead to symptoms like depression, fatigue, anxiety, and even suicidal thoughts, with testosterone also influencing traits such as aggression, stress resilience, and social vigilance.
  • Testosterone therapy has been shown in clinical trials to improve the quality of life in men with low testosterone, particularly in older hypogonadal individuals, by positively impacting their mood, behavior, and psychological well-being.]

@benryanwriter I didn’t even mean a blind study... How about a decent cohort size, say, the size of a representative sampling? and follow up for longer than a season of Summer Camp? Maybe control for the known moderating effect testosterone has on mood? https://t.co/0iWo7c2N21

@PatrickByrne This literature review on the relationship of testosterone levels to various psychological measures has a couple of hints, but nothing definite. It's full of psychology jargon, but see section 6 on self-construal for the hints. https://t.co/xH1wfzaGog

@PEthical @RealAlexJones Biology is my source. Testosterone is anxiolytic (anti-anxiety). Anxiety or "nerves" is what causes problems thinking clearly under stress. Males have 15 - 20 times more testosterone than females. https://t.co/kCmftp7F0C https://t.co/bbThhmx1bu https://t.co/voGGCWpstd

@JoeyTheAlmond @whowrestlesgod @lporiginalg Stop spreading this bullshit. Testosterone is responsible for stress reduction and mood. If you break that natural order because of gender “fixing”, you loose the ability to deal with stress. Transgender madness is the only fault here. https://t.co/q7xTfnJHpc

@The_Richard_J I think you've been fed a lot of 'self-help' nonsense and quotes out of context and need to sit down and read. Also testosterone doesn't work the way you think it does (get off Reddit!). https://t.co/wkZAwo2vj7
