    Glossary Steroid Cell Tumor

    rare ovarian tumor producing excess steroids, causing hormonal issues

    A Steroid Cell Tumor is a rare type of ovarian tumor that originates from cells capable of producing steroids, such as testosterone or cortisol. These tumors can lead to hormonal imbalances, causing symptoms like excessive hair growth (hirsutism) or menstrual irregularities. They are typically benign but can sometimes be malignant, requiring careful medical evaluation and treatment.
