Abstract
⺠Little is known about humans' testosterone variation over long timescales (i.e., seasons). ⺠Men and normally-cycling (NC) women have significant seasonal testosterone variation. ⺠Men's and NC women's testosterone is maximal in the fall/winter and minimal in the spring/summer. ⺠Women using hormonal contraceptives have a flatter seasonal testosterone profile than NC women.
