tupeosa, emakas ja munajuhad puuduvad. Neil on väike peenis, munandikotti ei moodustu ja munandid paiknevad kõhuõõnes, eesnäärme areng on häiritud. Puberteedieas saavutatakse piisavalt kõrge testosterooni tase, et toimida androgeenina isegi 5α-reduktaasi puudumisel ja kompenseerida DHT puudumine. XY-indiviididel, kellel puudub androgeeni retseptor, kujuneb androgeenitundetuse sündroom (androgen insensitivity syndrome) * AMH ja testosterooni produtseerivad testised kõhuõõnes (Mülleri juha derivaate ei arene), väliselt naissoole omased tunnused (peenise, kusiti ja munandikoti areng on seotud androgeeni (DHT) toimega) * Võimelised vastama östrogeeni (toodetakse neerupealistes või konverteeritakse testosteroonist) signaalidele, mistõttu arenevad naissoole iseloomulikud tunnused (nt arenevad rinnad, häbememokad, kliitor)
SHBG binds to testosterone16 and renders it inert for our purposes, and "total testosterone" in blood tests can therefore be misleading. Some vegans have been shown to have higher testosterone levels than both meat-eaters and vegetarians, for example, but higher levels of SHBG cancel out this advantage. In other studies, consumption of cholesterol has been shown to be inversely correlated with SHBG. In other words, the more cholesterol you eat, the less SHBG you have. From Carruthers's Androgen Deficiency in the Adult Male: Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment: Strict low cholesterol diets have been shown to lower total and free testosterone levels by 14%. Vegetarian diets, especially if low in protein, can increase SHBG, further reducing FT [free testosterone]. However, men put on a low-fat, high- ber, vegetarian diet have a 18% reduction in both total testosterone and FT, which is reversed when they go back on a normal diet...
