Abstract

Syndrome of hyperandrogenism in women is one of the commonest disease of the adult age. It is associated with a high risk of metabolic disturbances, cardiovascular disorders, and infertility. Taken together, these factors dictate the necessity of in-depth investigations of this pathology. At present, both etiology and pathogenesis of the syndrome of hyperandrogenism remain obscure. As a rule, its clinical manifestations become apparent at puberty. The present review summarizes the data on the development and clinical course of female hyperandrogenism with special reference to its occurrence, diagnostic tools, and therapeutic modalities in adolescent girls.
