Abstract in brief

Androgens are key sex steroid hormones, with testosterone being the main one in males and much lower levels in females, where precursors are converted into estrogens.
Testosterone is mainly produced in testicular Leydig cells in men and in the adrenal cortex and ovaries in women, involving enzymatic reactions in steroidogenic organs, with dihydrotestosterone being a more potent derivative.
The classic mechanism of androgen action involves binding to the androgen receptor, which regulates gene transcription, but androgens can also produce rapid effects through interactions with membrane proteins and signaling pathways.]
