relationship between competition, relationship status and paternity with testosterone levels among heterosexual males.

Write a 5 pages paper on a relationship between competition, relationship status and paternity with testosterone levels among heterosexual males. Recent studies on human body have exposed the association of paternal care and pair bonding with the variations in the levels of testosterone among males. From these researches, it has been deduced that married men have lower levels of the hormone as compared to the unmarried and unpaired males. The studies emphasise that even unmarried men in committed relationships have lower levels of testosterone than unmarried men that are not committed to relationships. Though with little statistical significance, the same studies demonstrated that fathers have lower levels of the hormone as compared to married men who have not yet fathered. Therefore, there is another relationship between the levels of testosterone and fatherhood that is clearly distinct from the association of the levels of the hormone with marriage (Gray et al, 2002).
