- dogma1138 11y agoFemales produce considerably (orders of magnitude) less testosterone (as well as other androgens) than males why is this surprising? http://www.healthline.com/health/low-testosterone/testosterone-levels-by-age#Prenatal2 http://www.healthline.com/health/low-testosterone/testostero... That said if it has any actual effect on Women varies, females would be in general much less sensitive to androgens to begin with (females have considerably less androgen receptors most of which will be present in the ovarian cells) so the effect on them will not be even close to the effect on males.
- wavefunction 11y agoI had meant to say "I don't know how anyone can argue that women DON'T have less testosterone naturally than men, on average." Since some few women do have higher testosterone levels than some few men. Which I assume is why I am being voted down.
