Copypaste from: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov:

Newborn rats were treated with a single dose of vitamin A (retinol), or with three doses of retinoic acid (in the 1st, 3rd and 5th days). Serum testosterone and progesterone level was measured in the four months old male and female rats, respectively. Retinol significantly decreased both hormone levels, however retinoic acid decreased the progesterone level only. In the second part of the experiments adolescent rats (in the 6th and 7th week after birth) were treated and measured similar to the newborns. In this case retinol significantly diminished testosterone level, without influencing the progesterone level

Use BHA instead.

high testosterone isn't a sign of good health in men, it's a sign of chronic stress.

verbally bullied boys produced more testosterone than their nonbullied counterparts.

androgen sensitivity matters more than testosterone does.

Dnrd the article but that excerpt seems too specific to apply that broadly

High test from being verbally assaulted could be a result of negative hormonal input, but that doesn't mean it can't indicate elevated positive hormonal balance as well.

Some short-term stressors, like exam stress, may temporarily increase testosterone levels up to a certain threshold [4–6].

it's a pretty well known phenomenon, although if it's long term it lowers testosterone as well.

there's a guy that posts here that has a 1.2k natural testosterone level but doesn't display any signs of it besides balding I'll go @ him, @HighClassMaxing

it's not about it being important or not, it's about how relevant it is, high testosterone is not a good thing.
 
high T = stress
high dht = ALPHA

Depends on how T is raised

Winning and not being a loser increase T (winners in the social hierachy has usualy more T and happy hormone"s in their blood)

Stress response like getting bullied or exam also increase T

But in most cases.. having a high T is BAD for the body
The only hormone thaat can be high without any problems is DHT

the delivery method to the rats wasn’t a cream so you’re wrong

low t is still a bad thing
 
Omfg, we should ban anyone who spreads misinformation to fit an agenda.

Topical Tretinoin X = ingesting retinol
Kinda like Accutane isn’t the same as Tretinoin.

And all the braintards are going to be like, "Hey, this is why I don’t use Tretinoin.” We would have cured cancer if we had banned misinformation.
