Suicide attempt by jumping: A study of gonadal axis hormones in male suicide attempters versus men who fell by accident
Psychiatry Research, 10/29/09

Markianos M et al. – The results indicate that male psychiatric patients who attempt suicide by violent methods may have low total plasma T levels, possibly due to a dysfunction of the HPG axis at the hypothalamic–pituitary level. Monitoring HPG axis function in future studies could prove to be a predictor of suicide at least for male psychiatric attempters, and could lead to preventive strategies.
