GlossaryBiochemical Hyperandrogenemia

elevated male hormone levels in blood detected by tests

Biochemical Hyperandrogenemia refers to an elevated level of androgens (male hormones like testosterone) in the blood, which can be detected through laboratory tests. This condition is often associated with disorders such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and can lead to symptoms like excessive hair growth, acne, and scalp hair thinning.
