Detailed Solution

Testosterone, a male sex hormone which does not cause a high pitch of voice. In fact, testosterone is associated with the deepening of the voice during puberty in males.

The deepening of the voice is primarily a result of the growth of the larynx (voice box) and the lengthening and thickening of the vocal cords. During puberty, the increase in testosterone levels triggers these changes in the larynx, leading to a deeper and more resonant voice. This change is particularly prominent in boys as they go through adolescence and experience the effects of increasing testosterone levels.
