TLDR 11-oxyandrogens are linked to excess hair growth in PCOS, but don't help diagnose it.
The document discussed the relationship between 11-oxyandrogens and excess hair growth, noting that while these androgens did not assist in diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), they were related to the condition's symptom of excess hair growth. It mentioned that combined oral contraceptive pill (COCP) treatment might be related to 11-ketotestosterone (11-KT), but further research was needed to establish causality, understand the relationship with metabolic outcomes, and determine the clinical utility of measuring these androgens in the context of PCOS.
