University of California , Santa Barbara , collected daily measures of both testosterone and levels of sexual desire across 31 days in a sample of 41 men.

They found no evidence that men experienced greater desire on days when their testosterone levels were raised.

However, when single men socialised with possible romantic partners, they reported greater courtship efforts on days their testosterone was elevated.
