As you can see the abundance of seminiferous tubules/germinal epithelium (where sperm is produced) accounts for 80% of testicular volume.

The use of exogenous testosterone will shut down the HPTA/LH/FSH/iTT (intratesticular testosterone) resulting in atrophy of these tubules.

Now you can see why atrophy of the testes can be significant in some cases when using/abusing testosterone/AAS.

Figure 2: Ontogeny of the evolution of testicular volume from birth to adulthood. Seminiferous cords (Sertoli cells + germ cells) are the main component of the testes. From birth and during the prepubertal period (i. e., until 9–14, Tanner stage 1), the volume of seminiferous cords is determined by Sertoli cells, whereas germ cell proliferation determines testicular volume during puberty (i. e., Tanner stages 2 to 5) (adult spermatogenesis).
