The endocrine, genital, and cognitive--affective responses of sexually functional men were compared under sexually arousing and non-arousing conditions. Sexually aroused subjects showed significantly higher serum luteinizing hormone concentrations than non-aroused subjects. Testosterone concentration was correlated with higher levels of penile response, but it did not prime further sexual arousal. Cortisol and prolactin concentrations decreased in both groups, more in the non-aroused group, and appeared to both inhibit and facilitate sexual response, depending on the level of anxiety reported by the subjects. Cortisol was correlated with self-reported worry, and testosterone with relaxation. These results support a multidimensional approach to the endocrine study of sexual arousal that includes both cognitive and genital response components.
对性功能正常男性在性唤起和非性唤起条件下的内分泌、生殖和认知-情感反应进行了比较。性唤起的受试者血清促黄体生成素浓度显著高于未唤起的受试者。睾酮浓度与较高水平的阴茎反应相关，但它并不能引发进一步的性唤起。两组的皮质醇和催乳素浓度均下降，未唤起组下降得更多，而且它们似乎既抑制又促进性反应，这取决于受试者报告的焦虑水平。皮质醇与自我报告的担忧相关，睾酮与放松相关。这些结果支持了一种多维方法来研究性唤起的内分泌情况，该方法包括认知和生殖反应成分。
