Taking biotin can lead to incorrect low results in free testosterone tests.
research PLASMA TESTOSTERONE GLUCOSIDURONATE: A RELIABLE INDICATOR OF FEMALE HYPERANDROGENISM (IDIOPATHIC HIRSUTISM AND ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA)
Measuring plasma testosterone glucosiduronate is a reliable way to detect high male hormone levels in women.
research The Optimal Indication for Testosterone Replacement Therapy in Late Onset Hypogonadism
Testosterone replacement therapy should be used for men with low testosterone levels and symptoms of hypogonadism, after careful diagnosis and considering individual needs.
research Effects of depot medroxyprogesterone acetate, the copper IUD and the levonorgestrel implant on testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin and free testosterone levels: ancillary study of the ECHO randomized clinical trial
The levonorgestrel implant increases free testosterone and lowers SHBG more than DMPA-IM and the copper IUD.
research In vivo and in vitro exposure to free fatty acids induce increased androgen production in animal models: a potential pathogenic factor of the polycystic ovary syndrome
Free fatty acids may increase androgen production, potentially contributing to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Testosterone Supplementation for Aging-Associated Sarcopenia
Testosterone supplements can increase muscle mass and strength in older men with low levels, but long-term effects and risks need more research.
research The influence of obesity on Androstenedione to Testosterone ratio in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and hyperandrogenemia
Obesity changes androgen levels in women with PCOS, leading to higher testosterone relative to androstenedione.
research Anabolic and Metabolic Effects of Testosterone and Other Androgens: Direct Effects and Role of Testosterone Metabolic Products
Testosterone and its metabolites have varied effects on different body systems, especially during puberty.
research No evidence for the immunocompetence handicap hypothesis in male humans
Higher free testosterone levels in men are linked to a stronger immune response, not weaker.
research Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Higher testosterone levels can increase the risk of certain diseases like type 2 diabetes in women and prostate cancer in men, but can also protect against autoimmune diseases and hair loss. It also affects body fat and bone density.
research Decision letter: Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Increased free testosterone can lead to stronger bones and less body fat but also higher risks of prostate cancer, hair loss, spine issues, and high blood pressure.
research Kennedy's disease and partial androgen insensitivity syndrome. Report of 4 cases and literature review
The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research MANAGEMENT OF ENDOCRINE DISEASE Hyperandrogenic states in women: pitfalls in laboratory diagnosis
Diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women is complex and requires accurate testing methods and consideration of SHBG levels.
research An Update on Plant Derived Anti-Androgens
Some plant-derived compounds may help with hormonal conditions, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research Hirsutism and Virilization in the Female
The chapter explains the causes of excessive hair growth and masculinization in women and how to measure hormone levels related to these conditions.

research Prevalence of hyperandrogenemia in the polycystic ovary syndrome diagnosed by the National Institutes of Health 1990 criteria
Most women with PCOS have high levels of male hormones, and free testosterone is the best marker for this.
research Androgen excess: Investigations and management
The conclusion is that managing androgen excess requires long-term treatment, including hormonal contraceptives and androgen blockers, with follow-up after six months.
research Specific dermatologic features of the polycystic ovary syndrome and its association with biochemical markers of the metabolic syndrome and hyperandrogenism
Hirsutism is a strong sign of high male hormones and metabolic problems in women with PCOS, but acne and hair loss are not.
