The pituitary gland in the brain makes other glands produce excess hormones. This causes increase in testosterone which drives puberty in males. (oestrogen in females)

Yes, you can. Some people never go through puberty. This can be caused by a variety of factors, such as not producing hormones, or a genetic disorder.

If you're a twenty year old male who has not gone through puberty and you take testosterone will it induce puberty?

The latest people begin puberty at would be 17-18. You could be experiencing delayed puberty, and if so, you would probably be given testosterone shots. The most important thing is talking to your doctor, because only they can determine what problems your having, and the cause of the problem. Delayed puberty can be caused by several different factors. Testosterone is the hormone that begins puberty off in a boy so by taking the shots it will induce puberty if you are a late starter with delayed puberty.
