Dunham (surname) Dunham is a surname of Anglo-Saxon origination. The origins of the name may be in the Britannic place name âde Dinanâ (Dinan is a walled town in North West France). Alan, Barron de Dinan of Scotland carried the name to the United Kingdom with William the Conqueror in 1066.
Thus HCG sends the same message and results in increased testosterone production by the testis due to HCGâs effect on the leydig cells of the testis.
In both men and women, testosterone is made in small amounts by the adrenal glands, and in women, by the ovaries. The pituitary gland controls the level of testosterone in the body. When the testosterone level is low, the pituitary gland releases a hormone called luteinizing hormone (LH) . This hormone tells the testicles to make more testosterone. Before puberty, the testosterone level in boys is normally low.
