What is Testosterone and why is important?

Testosterone is an important sex hormone in men. It is secreted by the testes and is responsible for the typical male characteristics, such as facial, pubic, and body hair as well as muscle. This hormone also helps maintain sex drive, sperm production, and bone health. The brain and pituitary gland (a small gland at the base of the brain) control the production of testosterone by the testes. https://www.endocrine.org/patient-engagement/endocrine-library/hypogonadism
