Normal Levels of Testosterone
Like our cholesterol levels and blood pressure levels, testosterone levels do have a upper and lower limit. The T levels or the testosterone levels in the body are regulated by the brain and the testes. During low testosterone the brain activates the testes to create more. When the levels are normal the brain signals the testes to make less.
