The process of androgen production in women

Androgens in women are mainly due to the synthesis of a certain amount of androgens by the adrenal cortex, while the ovaries themselves also synthesize a small amount of androgens, so a certain amount of androgens will be present in the sex hormone 6 test. For example, polycystic ovary syndrome often results in increased androgens in the body, mainly due to the local high androgen environment in the ovaries, which prevents the normal growth of follicles and causes no ovulation or sparse ovulation, and therefore also causes hirsutism, obesity, acne, hair loss and other clinical symptoms. Systematic treatment is recommended.
