A member asked:
Does the amount of testosterone levels in females determine how much their faces change during puberty?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good question: I'm not sure this has been officially studied. Female ovaries are responsible for testosterone production and are thought to play a role in onset of puberty. High levels of testosterone in women are associated with increase in facial hair, increase in acne and may cause thinning of hair on top of the head. Testosterone increases bone density and potentially may cause widening of the jaw.
