What causes women to have high testosterone level?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on the age: Probably most common is hyperthecosis, an ovarioan issue that occurs after menopause. Testosterone and testosterone like substances come from two sources most commonly, ovaries and adrenal glands. A specialist can figure this out for you. Teststerone secreting tumors are extraordinarily rare.
