Androstadienol, or androsta-5,16-dien-3β-ol, is a

sweat of both men and women.[1][2]

Androstadienol and

3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase.[5] Male sweat contains approximately five times as much androstenone as does female sweat, which can be explained by sex differences in androstadienol and androstadienone production.[1][2]

Androstadienone, which is produced from androstadienol, has been found to affect brain activity.

sexual behavior, attention, visual perception/recognition, and social cognition.[6]
