Androgen: Applications, Biological function & Types and examples

An androgen (from Greek andr-, the stem of the word meaning 'man') is any natural or synthetic steroid hormone that regulates the development and maintenance of male physiological characteristics in vertebrates by binding to androgen receptors. This includes the embryological development of the primary male sex organs, and the development of male…
