The baby hasn’t been drinking San Yuan milk powder, but the parents still brought it for a check-up. Today, we received the test results. Doctor, is this result normal?
Answer
Hello, about 50% of testosterone in women comes from the conversion of androstenedione in the periphery, another 25% is secreted by the adrenal cortex, and only 25% comes from the ovaries. High testosterone levels may affect menstruation and even lead to infertility. There are many reasons that can cause high testosterone levels, and it is recommended to further investigate the cause. It is suggested to consume more protein-rich foods, supplement calcium, and perform stretching exercises to promote height growth. If necessary, estrogen therapy can be combined with the examination of bone age.
