The benefits and risks of testosterone replacement therapy: a review
Increased longevity and population aging will increase the number of men with late onset
hypogonadism. It is a common condition, but often underdiagnosed and undertreated. The …

Testosterone and reproductive effort in male primates
MN Muller - Hormones and Behavior, 2017 - Elsevier
Considerable evidence suggests that the steroid hormone testosterone mediates major life-
history trade-offs in vertebrates, promoting mating effort at the expense of parenting effort or …

Testosterone responses to competition predict future aggressive behaviour at a cost to reward in men
The extent to which trait factors (baseline testosterone concentrations, trait dominance) and
state factors (change in social status, change in testosterone concentrations) would predict …

Aggressive behavior and change in salivary testosterone concentrations predict willingness to engage in a competitive task
The current study investigated relationships among aggressive behavior, change in salivary
testosterone concentrations, and willingness to engage in a competitive task. Thirty-eight …

Social monogamy in nonhuman primates: phylogeny, phenotype, and physiology
Monogamy as a social system has been both a scientific puzzle and a sociocultural issue for
decades. In this review, we examine social monogamy from a comparative perspective with …

Oxytocin modulates behavioral and physiological responses to a stressor in marmoset monkeys
Social isolation is a major source of stress and can lead to activation of the hypothalamic-
pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The presence of a close social partner can reduce the …

Reciprocity between endocrine state and contest behavior in the killifish, Kryptolebias marmoratus
RL Earley, Y Hsu - Hormones and behavior, 2008 - Elsevier
Given the dramatic behavioral effects of winning and losing contests, and pronounced
changes in stress and sex steroid hormones post-fight, it is reasonable to suppose that these …

The influence of androgenic steroid hormones on female aggression in 'atypical'mammals
Dimorphism on dominance and agonistic behaviour in mammals tends to be strongly biased
toward males. In this review, we focus on a select few species of mammals in which females …

From social behavior to neural circuitry: steroid hormones rapidly modulate advertisement calling via a vocal pattern generator
L Remage-Healey, AH Bass - Hormones and Behavior, 2006 - Elsevier
Across vertebrates, androgens are rapidly elevated within minutes in response to
aggressive or reproductive stimuli, yet it is unclear what the causal relationship is between …
