2. Cushing’s Disease: Diseases occurring in the body that lead to excessive production of certain hormones, such as adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion of Cushing’s Disease, can also be manifested as an increase in the level of androgens in women. The best thing to do is to find the tumor that is secreting adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), remove it surgically, and the androgen levels will also drop.
