    Glossary Androgenic Disorders

    refer to conditions caused by abnormal male hormone activity

    Androgenic disorders refer to medical conditions caused by the abnormal production or action of androgens, which are male sex hormones like testosterone. These disorders can lead to various symptoms, including excessive hair growth (hirsutism) in women, hair loss (androgenic alopecia) in both men and women, and other hormonal imbalances that can affect reproductive and overall health.
