Testosterone Interaction

Meaning

Testosterone interaction refers to the complex interplay of the androgen hormone testosterone with other hormones, pharmacological agents, and biological systems within the body, influencing a wide spectrum of physiological outcomes. This includes its reciprocal relationship with estrogen via aromatization, its feedback loop with Luteinizing Hormone or LH and Follicle-Stimulating Hormone or FSH, and its metabolic impact on insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism. Understanding these interactions is essential for managing the systemic effects of both endogenous and exogenous testosterone.
