    Glossary High Androgen Levels

    excess male hormones in the body causing various symptoms

    High Androgen Levels, also known as Elevated Androgen Levels, refer to an excess of male hormones, such as testosterone, in the body. This condition can affect both men and women and may lead to symptoms like excessive hair growth (hirsutism), acne, and in women, conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Elevated androgens can disrupt normal hormonal balance and may require medical evaluation and management.
