What characteristic of men's skin is attributed to androgen stimulation?

Men's skin is generally characterized by a thicker texture due to the influence of androgens, which are male hormones such as testosterone. Androgens contribute to the development of various secondary sexual characteristics, including skin thickness. The stimulation from these hormones leads to an increase in the overall density and robustness of the skin, making it more resilient compared to women's skin.

This thicker skin also often has more sebaceous (oil) glands, which can result in a different feel and appearance. In contrast, options such as thinner skin texture, more pigmentation, and higher moisture content do not align with the hormonal influence that androgens exert, as these characteristics are typically not associated with male skin physiology influenced by androgens.
