Dietary care for patients with significantly elevated serum testosterone concentrations

During the follicular phase of the normal menstrual cycle, the average serum testosterone concentration is 0.43 ng/ml, with a high limit of 0.68 ng/ml. If it exceeds 0.7 ng/m1 (equal to 2.44 nmol/L), it is called hypertestosteronemia, or hyperandrogenemia. The ovaries and adrenal cortex can synthesize cholesterol from acetic acid or absorb cholesterol from the blood as a substrate to synthesize steroid hormones, which are secreted into the blood circulation. The main androgens in the circulation are dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), androstenedione (Δ4A), testosterone (T) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Hypertestosteronemia is the result of high levels of these hormones, especially testosterone, in the blood. Dietary care for patients with significantly elevated serum testosterone concentration: 1. Daily diet should be light, with more vegetables and fruits. Avoid high-fat and high-cholesterol foods. Eat more soy products, such as soy milk, tofu, soy skin and other estrogen-rich foods. You can also eat honey, royal jelly and other foods in moderation. 2, now the study found that the high glycemic index of sweets will cause insulin secretion, indirectly causing a significant increase in serum testosterone concentration, so vegetables and fruits are not the key, the key is to eat less sweets, including a variety of sugary drinks. 3, moderate to eat more lipid-lowering fruits, apples, cherries and so on is not very sweet, starch content less fruit. Vegetables are not too much taboo. But potatoes with high starch content of vegetables eat in moderation, not too much.
