Eisenbruch and Roney Publish 5-Minute Opinion Arguing Low Testosterone Isn’t Always Bad
2 articles · Updated · The Washington Post · Jul 13
Summary
A July 13 opinion essay by Adar B. Eisenbruch and James R. Roney argues that low testosterone should not automatically be treated as a health problem.
The 5-minute piece says public anxiety around testosterone is being amplified by a broader “testosterone craze” that fuels fear rather than a clear understanding of masculinity or health.
Eisenbruch, a SUNY Purchase psychology professor, and Roney, a UC Santa Barbara psychological and brain sciences professor, frame the article as a corrective to simplistic assumptions about testosterone levels.
