A member asked:
How is hyper testesterone treated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hyperandrogenism: Caused by an excessive secretion of androgens by the adrenal cortex, ovaries, or testes. The clinical significance in males is negligible, so the term is used most often with reference to women. The common manifestations in women are hirsutism and virilism. Hyperandrogenism is often caused by either ovarian or adrenal diseases, and treatment will depend upon cause..
