How is testosterone connected to depression?

Posted by cb776 on January 16, 2011, at 7:10:59

I read that low testosterone-levels could cause depression in some males.
(http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/547830)

High levels of TEST in women produce the opposite effect.(http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/724037)

On the other hand most antidepressants lowers testosterone-levels and raise prolactin. This should be ideal for women. But still it cures some men from depression.

Should there be research to create antidepressants specifically for woman and men?

Is there any connection?
