Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Testosterone has been linked with sexual interest in both men and women. Research suggests that higher levels of testosterone may lead to an increase in sexual desire, but sexual activity can also stimulate the production of testosterone. Therefore, the relationship between testosterone and sexual interest can go in both directions. While estrogen and estradiol also play roles in sexual function, there is not as strong evidence of bidirectional relationships with sexual interest. Oxytocin is more closely linked with bonding and social behaviors rather than sexual interest.
