A feedback loop: Testosterone is broken down by enzymes into different compounds, one of which is Estradiol (estrogen). These compounds then circulate in the bloodstream back to the brain where they signal to the brain that enough testosterone is present in the body. The brain then decreases production of the chemical signals responsible for increasing testosterone levels.
