PCOS - High Androstenedione

[Blue12]

So no one on bnb has used this word before lol.

My blood results show that it is quite high for me - it is extra male hormone, causes hair growth.

So I googled this - and it says it causes poor egg development.

Does anyone have this, know about this, or know how to lower my levels???

There isnt, to the best of my knowledge, anything they can directly be done to it, just trying to rebalance your female hormones to counteract it. On its own, it doesnt seem to be much of a pain, but it's almost always mixed with high testosterone and abnormal levels of SHBG.

There is talk that androstenedione & the other male hormones will drop quite alot with ovarian drilling, helping to rebalance you
