NOTE: Though hormones from the pituitary gland (FSH and LH) stimulate testosterone production (a positive effect on the testes), testosterone inhibits the production of the pituitary hormones FSH and LH. Thus overall, this is a negative feedback system, which maintains homeostasis of testosterone levels.

Description Français : Planche anatomique du système génital développée par le Bioscope, les HUG, le DIP et Odile Fillod, mis en ligne sur le site Sciences, Sexes, Identités de l’Université de Genève.

« Ces planches anatomiques sont différentes car elles...

· intègrent de façon égalitaire les organes analogues des systèmes reproducteurs masculins et féminins,

· sont basées sur les connaissances scientifiques les plus récentes sur les organes génitaux,

· intègrent des aspects d'anatomie et physiologie liés à la fonction sexuelle et non seulement à la fonction reproductive,

· intègrent les notions d'enseignement inclusif. »

English: Anatomical charts of the genital system developped by Bioscope, HUG, DIP and Odile Fillod, published on the website Sciences, Sexes, Identités of Université of Geneva.

“The new anatomical charts are different because they ...

· integrate with equity, analogous organs of the male and female reproductive systems, clitoris and all its parts included,

· are based on the latest scientific knowledge of the genitalia,

· integrate aspects of anatomy and physiology related not only to reproductive, but also to sexual function,

· are inclusive.”
