Julie, The Pituitary gland releases ACTH which stimulates the Adrenal glands to release androgens, like testosterone.  And it releases Luteinizing Hormone (LH) which in males helps develop and secrete testosterone in the testes.

So to answer your question.  The Adrenal glands also can release small amounts of testosterone.

An Orchidectomy in the case of the Transsexual is purely a personal decision.  I did it for tucking reasons, and that I don't have the funds for SRS.  And I did not see any options for SRS in the future.

I've waited all my life to have a nice vagina & to have good clean hot sex with my man, wrap my legs around him.....
But so old now, if he's my age, I may have to buy him some viagra to stay up.

I'll hold on current O for best chance at a real O/moan later in life.


Hope a lot of friends saw Lucy yesterday on TCM. The Long Long Trailer was one of the funniest movies I've ever see. She was so funny. Rest in Peace, Lucy.
