Serum testosterone concentration was significantly increased
Introduction
Introduction In the follicular phase of the normal menstrual cycle, the serum testosterone concentration is 0.43 ng/ml on average, and the upper limit is 0.68 ng/ml. If it exceeds 0.7 ng/m1 (equal to 2.44 nmol/L), it is called high testosteroneemia, or high androgen. Blood.
Cause
Cause
The cause of a significant increase in serum testosterone concentration
About 34% of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome, followed by adrenal hyperfunction, accounting for 29%, a small number of follicular hyperplasia and adrenal hyperplasia; about 28% of unknown sources. It has recently been reported that hyperinsulinemia can stimulate the ovary to secrete large amounts of androgen into hypertestosterone.

Check for a significant increase in serum testosterone concentration
Ovarian, adrenal cortex, etc. can synthesize cholesterol from acetic acid, or absorb cholesterol from the blood as a matrix, synthesize steroid hormones, and secrete into the blood circulation. The androgens in the blood circulation are mainly DHEAS, DHEA, androstenedione (4A), testosterone (T) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). High testosteroneemia, which is formed by the high levels of these hormones, especially testosterone in the blood.

Symptoms of serum testosterone increase significantly confusing
Low serum testosterone levels: What is the impact of hypogonadism and decreased testosterone levels on men's health has been a controversial issue. Although studies have shown that high doses of testosterone or other exogenous androgens may be harmful to health, a low serum testosterone concentration may indicate an increase in mortality in older men. Testosterone levels may be a risk factor for coronary atherosclerosis. Testosterone, also known as testosterone, testosterone or testosterone, is a steroid hormone secreted by the male testis or female ovaries, and the adrenal glands secrete a small amount of testosterone. It is the main male sex hormone and anabolic hormone. The amount of testosterone secreted by adult males is 20 times that of adult females. In the follicular phase of the normal female menstrual cycle, the serum testosterone concentration averaged 0.43 ng/ml and the upper limit was 0.68 ng/ml.
Serum testosterone concentration is significantly increased: the normal menstrual cycle follicular phase, the average serum testosterone concentration is 0.43ng / ml, the high limit is 0.68ng / ml, such as more than 0.7ng / m1 (equal to 2.44nmol / L), known as high Testosteroneemia, or hyperandrogenism. Ovarian, adrenal cortex, etc. can synthesize cholesterol from acetic acid, or absorb cholesterol from the blood as a matrix, synthesize steroid hormones, and secrete into the blood circulation. The androgens in the blood circulation are mainly DHEAS, DHEA, androstenedione (4A), testosterone (T) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). High testosteroneemia, which is formed by the high levels of these hormones, especially testosterone in the blood.
Increased serum calcitonin levels: Serum calcitonin is a hormone secreted by thyroid follicular cells. When it is elevated for some reason, it can increase the amount of calcium excreted by the kidneys and lower the blood calcium concentration. Calcitonin is a thirty-two peptide containing a disulfide bond and has a molecular weight of 3,400. Normal human serum has a calcitonin concentration of 10-20 ng/L and a plasma half-life of less than 1 h, which is mainly degraded and excreted in the kidney. The main role of calcitonin is to lower blood calcium and blood phosphorus. The main target organ is bone, which also has a certain effect on the kidney.
Reduced serum HDL-C levels: Hyperlipidemia is a systemic disease in which blood cholesterol (TC) and/or triglyceride (TG) is too high or high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is too low. Modern medicine calls it dyslipidemia.
Ovarian, adrenal cortex, etc. can synthesize cholesterol from acetic acid, or absorb cholesterol from the blood as a matrix, synthesize steroid hormones, and secrete into the blood circulation. The androgens in the blood circulation are mainly DHEAS, DHEA, androstenedione (4A), testosterone (T) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). High testosteroneemia, which is formed by the high levels of these hormones, especially testosterone in the blood.
