Committed to your well-being.
There is a certain level of testosterone, which is androgen, within normal women. Androgen is necessary for normal reproductive physiology of women. Androgen is too high. For example, during menstruation, when androgen is higher than 0.75 nanograms per milliliter, it is called hyperandrogenism. Blood, this type of patient often causes ovulation disorders, which can lead to infertility. The most common female hyperandrogenism occurs in polycystic ovary syndrome, because one of the criteria for the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome is high testosterone levels in women or signs of high testosterone. High testosterone levels in women can affect ovulation and cause infertility. If the female androgen is too high, it is not necessarily polycystic ovary syndrome, for example, Cushing's syndrome or adrenal cortical hyperfunction disease, but also sometimes testosterone increase, so if high androgen is found, it is recommended to investigate the cause of high androgen, find out the cause after targeted treatment, or can conceive.
