A member asked:

I noticed i have irregular periods and high testosterone. how do i fix this?

PCOS?: Hi. The most likely explanation (although by no means the only possible one) would be PCOS. Talk with your doctor and evaluate for competing diagnoses if indicated. The fix depends on the etiology. The treatment for PCOS is fortunately very easy, but unfortunately often not very effective. Talk with your doc. Good luck!
