Testosterone is a steroid hormone primarily secreted by the testes in males and, to a lesser extent, by the ovaries in females and the adrenal glands in both sexes. It plays a crucial role in the development of male reproductive tissues, promoting secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle and bone mass.
