©2013 UpToDate ® Print Email Serum androgen concentrations are high in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome Mean serum concentrations of testosterone (pg/mL), androstenedione (pg/mL), and DHEA-sulfate (mcg/mL) in 10 normal women between Day 2 to 4 of their menstrual cycle and 19 women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The mean serum concentration of each androgen was high in the women with PCOS, but there was substantial overlap between the two groups and many women with PCOS had normal values for one or more androgens. Data from: DeVane GW, Czekala NM, Judd HL, Yen SS. Circulating gonadotropins, estrogens, and androgens in polycystic ovarian disease. Am J Obstet Gynecol 1975; 121:496.
