Virile


Definition:

  • (a.) Having the nature, properties, or qualities, of an adult man; characteristic of developed manhood; hence, masterful; forceful; specifically, capable of begetting; -- opposed to womanly, feminine, and puerile; as, virile age, virile power, virile organs.

Example Sentences:

  • (6) The genetic, biochemical, clinical and endocrinological features of four distinct syndromes are described in which defective virilization in genetic and gondal men appears to result from resistance to androgen action.
  • (7) Testosterone, 5alpha-androstane-3alpha, 17beta-diol (3alpha-diol), and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) virilize the anlagen of the mammary gland by suppressing nipple formation but 5alpha-androstane-3beta, 17beta-diol, androsterone, and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate do not affect female mammary differentiation.
