Inhibin is a hormone that is produced in the sustentacular cells in the testes. It forms a negative feedback loop with FSH. If there is too much FSH the body produces lots of Inhibin which stops the pituitary gland from producing move FSH.
(Hope that's all right. Feel free to tell me I am wrong cause it helps me too)
