Several options: I suggest seeing an endocrinologist to evaluate why you have high testosterone. Usually this is due to polycystic ovarian syndrome. The most common options for treatment include metformin and the birth control pill. Both can help decrease the symptoms associated with the high testosterone, and help regulate your menses.
