Twin testosterone transfer hypothesis and the second‐to‐fourth digit ratio in females of same‐sex and opposite‐sex twin pairs: An exploratory study

Abstract The twin testosterone transfer (TTT) hypothesis posits that females with male co‐twins (opposite‐sex, OS) might develop male‐typical traits due to higher prenatal testosterone exposure. This study explored whether females of OS have lower 2D:4D digit ratios and higher testosterone levels co...
