    GlossaryAndrogen Production (androgen synthesis)

    process of creating male sex hormones like testosterone

    Androgen production, also known as androgen synthesis, refers to the process by which the body produces androgens, a group of hormones that play a key role in male traits and reproductive activity. These hormones, including testosterone, are primarily produced in the testes in men and in smaller amounts in the ovaries and adrenal glands in women. Androgens are crucial for the development of male characteristics such as facial hair and a deeper voice, and they also influence muscle mass and libido.
