A member asked:

In what ways are the adrenal glands blocked which secrete testosterone hormones?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

What?: Adrenal gland secretion and testosterone secretion by the testis are totally independent. The adrenal glands do produce some small amounts of testosterone. And excessive testosterone in some disease states, but those are thing that are best discussed with your doctor.
