"researchers say the differences are linked to energy investment as it may only be possible to have high testosterone levels if there are not many other demands placed on the body such as fighting off infections.?In environments where people are more exposed to disease or poor nutrition, developing males direct energy towards survival at the cost of testosterone."

Testosterone is also an immune-suppressant, so it makes sense to have a mechanism for down-regulation when you keep needing to fight off infections.
