Testosterone is not a sex hormone, contrary to
popular belief.
Since men produce more testosterone than women,
they have a more developed musculature. Hence
the misconception that testosterone has a sexual
effect.
In reality, testosterone is the hormone that
stimulates the production of proteins, which is
the effect that bodybuilders are looking for.
However, testosterone is a precursor to
dihydrotestosterone, which is the male sex
hormone. Testosterone is also a precursor of the
female hormone estradiol which is a
proliferative hormone. This is why the use of
testosterone to stimulate sexual activity
in men
or women is dangerous (1-2-3-4).
