Testosterone is a type of male hormone known as an androgen. Like other androgens, testosterone encourages the development of male features and characteristics, such as facial hair, deep voice, and dense muscle mass. This hormone also affects your drive and performance, making your testosterone levels an integral component of the male body.
Although low levels of testosterone can be produced by both healthy men and women in the adrenal gland, the main source of testosterone production is found in the male gonads, known as the testes. Also referred to as testicles, testes are sex glands found in the male reproductive system. In fact, the word ‘testosterone’ originates from the Latin root ‘testis,’ which means testicles.
