Your testes start secreting testosterone during puberty.
Leydig cells, also known as interstitial cells, are responsible for secreting testosterone in the testes. They are located in the connective tissue of the testes and play a critical role in the regulation of male reproductive function.
Testosterone & sperm
Testosterone IS a hormone. It is secreted by the testes.
I would expect testosterone to prevent or reverse atrophy of the testes.
Testosterone: hormone secreted by the testes
LH, Leutenizing Hormone. It signals the interstitial cells in the testes to start producing testosterone.
testosterone
AAS (Anabolic/Androgenic) Steroids can cause testes to shrink because artificial testosterone is introduced into the body which causes the testes to stop producing natural testosterone. This is called testicular atrophy, usually after someone stops using the steroid the body will start to produce natural testosterone again after this testes should return to normal size.
There are no foods which help you to increase testosterone. Testosterone is produced naturally in the testes when you reach puberty regardless of what you eat.
Males- testes Females - ovaries (yes females have testosterone)
Leydig cells produce testosterone in the testes. They are also called interstitial cells.
The testes are the sex glands responsible for producing sperm and secreting testosterone in males. They are located within the scrotum outside the body to maintain a lower temperature necessary for sperm production.
