The document concludes that a systematic approach is crucial to identify causes of androgen excess in women beyond the most common cause, Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
research Nonclassic Adrenal Hyperplasia: Clinical Features, Diagnosis, and Treatment
Nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia is a genetic condition that can cause early puberty and fertility problems, treated with specific steroids.
research Ashwagandha Root in the Treatment of Non-Classical Adrenal Hyperplasia
Ashwagandha may improve hormone levels and reduce hair loss in non-classical adrenal hyperplasia.
research Androgen Biosynthesis and Gene Defects
Gene mutations can cause problems in male genital development.
research The Cycle Characteristics and Outcomes of Infertile Nonclassic 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency Patients Undergoing Ovarian Stimulation for In Vitro Fertilization
Women with nonclassic 21-hydroxylase deficiency can have successful pregnancies through IVF, with certain factors affecting their chances.
research Hyperandrogenism and Cardiometabolic Risk in Pre- and Postmenopausal Women: What Is the Evidence?
Hyperandrogenism increases heart disease risk in premenopausal women, but this risk is linked to obesity in postmenopausal women.
research Carriers of 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency Are Not at Increased Risk for Hyperandrogenism
People who carry the 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency gene are not more likely to have excessive male hormone levels.
