A woman's severe male hormone excess was caused by a small, hard-to-find ovarian tumor.
research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research 9243 Postmenopausal Hyperandrogenism due to Rare Ovarian Tumor
Bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy resolved hyperandrogenism in a postmenopausal woman with rare ovarian tumors.

research Androgens and Female Sexual Function and Dysfunction—Findings From the Fourth International Consultation of Sexual Medicine
Androgens play a role in female sexual function, and testosterone therapy can help women with low sexual desire, but more research is needed on treatments and long-term safety.
research Role of 5α-dihydrotestosterone in testicular development of gilthead seabream following finasteride administration
DHT affects testicular development and regulates spermatogenesis in some fish.
research Evaluation of Hyperandrogenemia in Women with Prolactinoma
Treating prolactinoma doesn't significantly affect hirsutism or cause high androgen levels.
research 5 Alpha - Reductase and Metabolic Syndrome in PCOS Patients

research What is your diagnosis?
The woman likely has a hormonal imbalance causing excessive hair growth.
research [Analysis of steroids and binding proteins in the blood of women with androgenetic alopecia].
Women with androgenetic alopecia have normal levels of most blood steroids and binding proteins, but higher dehydroepiandrosterone. Some also have low "sex hormone-binding globulin" and "corticosteroide-binding globulin" capacity, and high "free androgen index" and "free cortisol index". Diane treatment can normalize these levels and improve hair conditions.
