MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Testosterone is a hormone that your gonads (sex organs) mainly produce. More specifically, the testicles in people assigned male at birth (AMAB) and the ovaries in people assigned female at birth (AFAB) produce testosterone.

Detailed explanation-2: -Testosterone is produced by Leydig cells in the interstitial space of the testis.

Detailed explanation-3: -What is testosterone? Testosterone is produced by the gonads (by the Leydig cells in testes in men and by the ovaries in women), although small quantities are also produced by the adrenal glands in both sexes. It is an androgen, meaning that it stimulates the development of male characteristics.

Detailed explanation-4: -Testes (testicles). The testes are 2 small organs that are found inside the scrotum. The testes are responsible for making sperm and are also involved in producing a hormone called testosterone.

Detailed explanation-5: -Testosterone is the major androgen in the testis that regulates spermatogenesis. Testosterone is produced by the Leydig cell in response to stimulation with luteinizing hormone (LH) and acts as a paracrine factor that diffuses into the seminiferous tubules.
