Does a man create more testosterone than before taking estrogen after he quits?

When more estrogen is present in a man's body, either through natural or artificial means, the amount of testosterone he produces will be reduced. Some men begin to make more testosterone after the estrogen is reduced but some will continue to only produce the reduced amount of testosterone.


What hormones is only used by males?

Testosterone is vital to a man’s health. Men have estrogen too, it’s just in much smaller quantities than women, so it plays less of a role.

What is the target tissue in ovaries and the testes?

Are you asking, what is the target tissue for the hormones produced by the testes and ovaries? In that case, it would be estrogen and testosterone. Estrogen leads to secondary sex characteristics in girls during puberty, and testosterone does the same for boys. However, testosterone also increases muscle growth, which is why men are mostly stronger than women. While women also have testosterone production in there bodies, it is small in comparison to estrogen. With boys, they also have estrogen production, but it is usually less that testosterone. The caveat here is, fat also produces estrogen, so in very skinny girls, they can have a deficiency of estrogen, and this can lead to missed periods or late development.
