A member asked:
Can a woman produce more testosterone than hormones, how?and why? and which treatment can be use for that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You don't want to: Women produce a small amount of testosterone which serves many important functions. You don't want more than a small amount (which you can't get except with certain diseases or administration of of exogenous hormone) because larger amounts cause potentially serious medical problems in women.
