You’ve never asked why boys are more likely to suffer from autism, why women have those crazy cravings during pregnancy, why guys tend to be more aggressive, why men are more likely to excel at STEM. The list is unending, but the short explanation to the long story is “HORMONES”.

In subsequent articles, there will be explanations on a few hormones and the indispensable roles they play in fueling certain behaviours in humans. THE BIG IDEA IS TO LET YOU IN ON THE OPEN SECRET OF HORMONES.
