How do men increase their sex drive?
Men achieve arousal, or physical penile erections, as the result of actual stimulation (seeing, hearing, or otherwise) or from remembered or imagined stimuli. The most effective arousal is by touch, followed by sight or sound.
Pubescent (teen) males can achieve arousal at inappropriate times due to hormonal changes, and many discover erections upon waking, despite having no conscious memory of sexual dreams or thoughts.
Is testosterone a phospholipid?
No... It is a lipid because it is a hormone and hormones are lipids, but it is not a phospholipid.
Does marijuana raise the level or testosterone in men?
Yes, I am living proof. I used to get high and read all of the on-line "proof" negating questions like this but can now say that this old myth has some truth to it. Yes I know, the governator was in Pumping Iron tokin' a J. But I am willing to bet that he was never a regular user.
Which hormone stimulates the production of testosterone?
Hormones are regulated by what are called negative feedback mechanisms. When more is needed, more will be released and the opposite is true when there is enough. For example, the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone decreases as the amount of circulating estrogen increases.
B12 shots boost energy levels because the production of testosterone depends on B12. By flooding the body with strong amounts of a supplement that is vital for tesosterone, the body cant help but directly use it.
Which gland produces testosterone?
HGH is produced by the somatotroph cells within the lateral wings of the anterior pituitary gland
What is the benefit of testosterone for a woman?
The number one benefit is a higher sex drive. Other reported benefits include increased energy, reduced risk of osteoporosis, heightened metabolism, and increased muscle mass. It must be remembered though that women are sensitive to testosterone, so in taking supplements women may experience some masculinizing symptoms that they don't want such as a deepening of the voice or increased facial hair.
Testosterone is needed for what development?
Penis, Testicles, secondary sexual characteristics like increased muscle mass and a "manly" shape to bone structure (most notably the bones of the face and upper torso), and some other less general things.
Is testosterone legal in sport?
Testosterone is a hormone that the body creates naturally. Making that illegal would be like making your arms illegal in a sport.
If you take or receive testosterone from another source, i.e. steroids, is illegal, however.
Will testosterone cause a failed drug test?
no they wont but if you take them for long periods of time it will mess up your natural testosterone production
What is the chemical formula for testosterone?

How do you treat too much testosterone in males?
If a man has his testicles removed, testosteerone production will stop. Their are anti-androgens designed to surpress testosterone, but since this hormone is naturally found in men and women it will only completely stop after the remove or destruction of the gonades. Be advised that removing this hormone will also have consiquences on your health such as a lose of bone mass, blood complications, heart issues or diabetes. An artificial hormone (rather lab created testosterone or estragen) will be required for the rest of your life do to the lose of natural hormonal production.
Is FSH the same as testosterone?
FSH is short for Female Sex Hormone. The female sex hormone is called 'Oestrogen'.
The Male Sex Hormone is called 'Testosterone'. They are different but connected in a way as they are both sex hormones.
How are estrogen progesterone and testosterone involve in reproduction?
Estrogens are essential regulators of fertility and bind to estrogen receptors (ERs) ERalpha and ERbeta. The extent to which signalling through ERbeta modulates human fertility is still unclear. Immunohistochemistry revealed that many cells within male and female reproductive systems synthesize ERbeta. Studies using mice lacking functional ERbeta demonstrated disturbed ovarian but intact testicular, function. Differences in reproductive physiology and in ESR expression patterns in rodents and humans mean that we need more data from studies using human cells and/or primate models before we can unravel the contribution made by ERbeta, or its variant isoforms, to reproductive function in humans. Available evidence suggests that direct targeting of ERbeta with selective agonists and antagonists might provide a novel therapeutic target in fertility and/or infertility management.
What type of organic compound is testosterone?
Yes, it is. It is an anabolic steroid. It is produced by the testis in males and ovaries in females (a smaller amount). It produces secondary sexual characteristics.
What are the effects of exercise on womens testosterone levels?
High testosterone levels in women cause many of the same effects it causes in men. One problem with testosterone levels in women is what is normal in one woman is not in another. Testosterone can be used by women with a low libido, to help get the urge for sex back. But if too much testosterone is taken, a woman will develop facial hair, a deeper voice, more muscle mass and redistribution of fatty pads.
Too much testosterone along with high cholesterol will increase the chance of having a heart attack.
How much testosterone does a male produce?
CONTRARY to the respected cannon' the amount of testosterone present in a mammals body is approximately only 1% of the total amount of fluid solutions and surprisingly same for a female and child' and the same is in male sperm/ and mothers milk' short term acting prostaglandins' acting inside cells' control the amounts distributed to the places where needed and is controlled by the brain' thyroid hormones' and the brain of each cell' males the brain cell DNA & long term memory cells control' maleism femaleism and puberty' and infancy immune systems as well! note; MITOSIS cannot occur without testosterone' and correct transcription peptides cannot be produced without pure testosterone being present in the correct amount! TESTOSTERONE is the most important hormone in the body' also interleukin 2 growth hormone will not activate without testosterone being present in the cytosol fluid of the cell! Note in female testosterone is used over and over again before loss is occurred, where as in a male testosterone is used up faster because of many reasons. example' metabolic rate' and sperm production' and muscle volume! Fact!
What over-the-counter medicines are equivalent to prescription testosterone?
There are no over-the-counter medicines equivalent to prescription testosterone.
How many cc of testosterone are in a mg?
It depends on the medication. 1cc=1mL of liquid. So depending on how many mg are in 1 mL of the vial, that's how many mg are in it. Medications are prescribed as so many mg and whoever draws the medication (nurse, CNA) has to convert the prescription (in mg) to mL of the vial of medication. Hope this helps
Does fish oil help testosterone?
Yes fish oil helps in the increase of testosterone levels. First of all, there are many studies showing that fish oil combats insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is the hallmark sign of Metabolic Disorder and Metabolic Disorder is associated with decreased testosterone (and erectile dysfunction). The reason is that fish oil has long chain omega-3 fatty acids, which improve insulin response.

What is the function of testosterone in animals?
Testosterone gives rise to male characteristics in animals. Male birds sing. Maturation of male sex glands and facilitation in process of male reproduction is the function of testosterone in the male animal. In female testosterone is present in fraction of the quantity present in male. It helps cellular function in brain, muscle and other body tissues giving vitality to animals both male and female.
When do hens produce testosterone?
The hen will not produce testosterone. Cases of spontaneous sex reversal are the result of a disease condition which has resulted in damage to the left ovary of the hen. Typically, female chickens only have one functional ovary, the left one. The right ovary and oviduct are present in the embryonic stages of all birds, but do not develop in chickens. In general, spontaneous sex reversal has been described as the result of pathological conditions (ovarian cyst or tumor, diseased adrenal glands) which cause the left ovary to regress. Residual tissues in the right ovary proliferate in the absence of a functional left ovary. This regenerated right gonad is known as an ovotestis and may contain tissue characteristics of the ovary, the testes, or both. There are reports of these ovotestes producing semen capable of fathering offspring. Most, however, will never lay an egg or sire offspring. The "ovotestes" are steroidogenically functional and secret androgens, as well as estrogen. As a result, the bird develops male secondary characteristics. So while the bird is genotypcially female, it will be phenotypically male.
What is the relationship between testosterone and sperm production?
The relationship is that testosterone produces sperm
