1. Abnormal menstruation: For women, hyperandrogenism may be manifested as irregular menstruation or menopause, and in severe cases, infertility, which is mostly seen in polycystic ovary syndrome.
2. Hairiness: Both males and females may suffer from hairiness when they have too much androgen, which may be manifested as obvious beard, thicker eyebrows, thicker hair, thicker pubic hair, thicker sweat hair, and so on.
3. Acne: When androgens are too high in women, sebaceous glands secrete excessively, which can cause acne, mostly seen in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.
4. Hair loss: Hyperandrogenism is very likely to cause hair loss, which can occur in both men and women.
Patients with hyperandrogenism should go to the hospital for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
