Sympathetic Tone

How hard the fight-or-flight side of the nervous system is running. Androgens raise tyrosine hydroxylase and change adrenergic receptor density, so a compound can lift this without touching mood directly. It is the shared cause behind a cluster people treat as four separate problems: a higher resting pulse, night sweats, a short fuse, and sleep that will not come.
