In the early days of pregnancy, these hormones will determine whether the fetus will androgynous male or female. Deficiency of this hormone during pregnancy will cause a condition called genital ambiguity, where the gender of the external examination newborn was not clear.

If a testosterone deficiency (hypogonadism) occurs during puberty, this can slow the growth and interfere with the development of secondary male characteristics.

Meanwhile, adult male hypogonadism experienced will cause one's manhood function impaired.

Men with low testosterone levels will have symptoms of tiredness, sluggish, low libido, and erectile dysfunction. Mood swings, irritability, and depression, can also accompany hypogonadism.
