Kwabesifazane Abadala
I-testosterone nayo ibalulekile kwabesifazane, ikakhulukazi ekugcineni isifiso sobulili. Kodwa-ke, iningi le-testosterone ekhiqizwa ama-ovari liguqulwa libe yi -estradiol , i-hormone yobulili yabesifazane eyinhloko.
Umzimba wakho ulawula kanjani amazinga e-Testosterone?
Isebenza ngesistimu yokuphendula ebukekayo. Cabanga ngayo njengesakhiwo senkampani: i -hypothalamus ebuchosheni bakho iyi-CEO, futhi ithumela umlayezo (i-Gonadotropin-releasing hormone – GnRH) endlaleni ye-pituitary , umphathi. Uma isitholiwe, indlala ye-pituitary ikhipha i-Luteinizing hormone (LH) egazini lakho, ekhombisa amasende noma ama-ovari ukuthi akhiqize i-testosterone. Lapho amazinga e-testosterone egazini efika ezingeni elifanele, ubuchopho buthola isignali yokumisa ukukhiqizwa. Uma noma iyiphi ingxenye yalolu hlelo yehluleka, amazinga akho angase abe angajwayelekile.
