Which hormones of the reproductive system are present both in females and males? How could the same hormone (e.g. estrogen, which is necessary for male and female fertility as well as many other functions) perform different functions in men and women? In which cells are the male sex hormo...
Whether homosexuality should be described as one among many paraphilic sexual interests or an altogether different dimension of sexual interest has long been discussed in terms of its political and social implications. The present article examined the question instead by comparing the major correlates and...
For the more brutal fowl, Prum writes, it’s “male-male competition” in the mating game that “is acting in the evolution of the coercive male behavior.” At the same time, “any genetic mutations that contribute to behaviors or vaginal morphologies that help females avoid forced fertilizat...
In addition, the observed increase in litter size in Tg-FSH females was not observed in the presence of AR signalling inactivation. In summary, the findings of the present study reveal that FSH can rescue impaired female fertility and ovarian function due to androgen insensitivity in female ARKO...
Potentially associated with FSD is a suite of behavioural, physiological and morphological traits in females that implicates (as a putative mechanism) ‘masculinization’ via androgen exposure; however, relative to conspecific males, female lemurs curiously show little evidence of raised androgen ...
Hyperandrogenism symptoms are prominent in females and include mild hirsutism on the face, scalp hair thinning, acne, and irregular menstrual periods. Males may also have acne.9 Cushing syndrome is also associated with high cortisol levels, resulting in: ...

FSH is a hormones that is produced in and secreted by the anterior pituitary. This hormone is present in both males and females. Although FSH targets different tissues, it serves the role stimulating follicular development in both males and females. Let us explo...
To exert multiple functions of estrogen, a ligand-bound ER must recognize ERE in target promoters. Previous studies have shown Foxa1/2 are involved in liver development and biological activity [85–88]. Additionally, in breast and prostate, the recruitment of ER-α and androgen receptor (AR) ...
