Hyperandrogenism: new insights into etiology, diagnosis, and therapy.

Current opinion in obstetrics & gynecology - 1 Jun 1992

Barbieri R L

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the genes for the insulin receptor, 21-hydroxylase, 11 beta-hydroxylase, and 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isomerase enzymes are associated with hyperandrogenism. These genetic causes of hyperandrogenism account for less than 10% of all cases. A major goal of future research will be to identify other genetic causes of hyperandrogenism. Evidence continues to accumulate that luteinizing hormone,...
