Lipid Metabolism and Hyperandrogenism
Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991Hyperandrogenism and lipid metabolism were shown to be related intimately. Any discussion of the nature of their relationship must include other clinical and metabolic variables such as hyperinsulinemia and UBO. Despite the many correlations among each of these factors, the appropriate sequence in the pathogenesis of these conditions has not been ...

Hyperandrogenism in female adolescents
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1993Female adolescence is normally accompanied by increased adrenal and ovarian production of androgens. Indeed it is not uncommon in early to midpuberty to see typical features of adult polycystic ovary syndrome, with luteinizing hormone-driven ovarian hyperandrogenism, hyperinsulinemia, acne, anovulation, oligomenorrhea, and large, multifollicular ...

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991
Many different disease processes can result in a phenotype of hirsutism, anovulation, and oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea. An important goal of reproductive endocrinologists is to identify specific genetic diseases that can produce the hyperandrogenic phenotype. Two genetic disorders that can result in the hyperandrogenic phenotype are 1) mutations in the

Hyperandrogenism in Peripubertal Girls
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1990Androgens arise from either adrenal or ovarian secretion or by peripheral conversion of secreted precursors. The adrenals and ovaries normally contribute about equally to testosterone and AD production. DHAS is the major adrenal 17-KS. Testosterone is the major circulating form of androgen.

Hyperandrogenism and Adrenocortical Tumors
2019Androgen-secreting tumors are a rare cause of hyperandrogenism of adrenal origin. Although these tumors are identified in less than 2% of patients, the prevalence of adrenocortical carcinomas is relevant (2/3 of the cases). Those tumors are associated with simultaneous elevation of several androgens, mainly androstenedione, DHEAS, and testosterone, in ...

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1992
Mutations in the genes for the insulin receptor, 21-hydroxylase, 11 beta-hydroxylase, and 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isomerase enzymes are associated with hyperandrogenism. These genetic causes of hyperandrogenism account for less than 10% of all cases.
