Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my testicles hurt, I feel very uncomfortable. I got tested and was diagnosed with orchitis. I'd like to ask, what is the use of testosterone?Doctor's answer:
Testosterone, also known as testosterone, testosterone, or androsterone, is a steroid hormone secreted by the male testes or the female ovaries. The adrenal glands also secrete a very small amount of testosterone, which helps maintain muscle strength and quality, bone density and strength, alertness, and enhances physical endurance. The effects of testosterone on male reproductive organs and other important organs are quite complex, and its biochemical processes have not been fully explained. However, testosterone may interfere with many body systems and functions, including: blood evolution, calcium balance in the body, bone mineralization, lipid catabolism, glucose catabolism, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. I hope this helps you.
