Is there an association between daylight hours and serum testosterone levels in men?

No relation was shown between seasonality and serum TT in the total cohort, thus possibly eliminating a confounding variable that could affect laboratory and clinical practice. It may be that seasonal variation in length of day is too modest at this latitude to demonstrate significant associations, hence our findings are latitude specific. We suggest that further data analysis to address this question in areas with greater seasonal variation would be appropriate.

Abstract

No relation was shown between seasonality and serum TT in the total cohort, thus possibly eliminating a confounding variable that could affect laboratory and clinical practice. It may be that seasonal variation in length of day is too modest at this latitude to demonstrate significant associations, hence our findings are latitude specific. We suggest that further data analysis to address this question in areas with greater seasonal variation would be appropriate.
