What are the physiological effects of male hormones?

Male hormone is an important substance that determines male characteristics. Many "manly" qualities that girls like are determined by male hormones. Surveys show that the reason why many police officers and soldiers can attract girls' admiring eyes is because they have high levels of male hormones. So, what are the physiological effects of male hormones?

1. Impact on male fetuses

The physiological effects of male hormones are present in the fetus. Testosterone in male hormones can promote the differentiation of gonadal structures, and the male internal and external genitalia are formed under its action. On the contrary, if the fetus lacks testosterone or the amount of testosterone is insufficient, the fetus's sexual organs will be deformed or underdeveloped, such as cryptorchidism.

2. Impact on the development of sexual physiology

The development of sexual physiology includes the development of primary sexual characteristics (such as the development of sexual reproductive organs) and secondary sexual characteristics (such as the development of body shape). The role of male hormones in promoting the development of primary sexual characteristics includes promoting the enlargement of testicles and the thickening of penis, etc.; the role of secondary sexual characteristics includes promoting the appearance of body hair, voice change, and Adam's apple protrusion, etc. If there is no male hormone or the male hormone secretion is too low, the development of sexual organs and the appearance of secondary sexual characteristics will be delayed, and even physical abnormalities will occur.

3. Provide a suitable environment for sperm survival

The conditions for sperm survival are relatively demanding, such as the need for a high concentration of body fluids, which are difficult to meet with ordinary body fluids. However, the concentration of testosterone in male hormones is many times higher than that of ordinary body fluids, thus creating good living conditions for sperm.

4. Maintain normal sexual function

Male hormones stimulate sexual desire and increase sexual excitement by affecting the sex nerve center and stimulating the reproductive organs. If there is no or too little male hormone, the sexual desire of the person will decrease, and it is easy to cause sexual dysfunction such as impotence.

Testosterone deficiency can lead to a decline in the overall health of middle-aged and elderly men, including decreased libido, low mood, fatigue and erectile dysfunction. Studies have shown that the lower the testosterone level in men, the greater the likelihood of metabolic syndrome, which in turn leads to diabetes, heart disease, cardiovascular disease, and even erectile dysfunction.

The above introduces the physiological effects of male hormones. From the above introduction, we can understand the important role of male hormones for men. We should pay more attention to men's physical health. I hope the above introduction can help you in life. Finally, I wish you all a happy life.
