What are the causes of presence of testosterone hormone in women's bloodstream?
12 مارس 2015

Testosterone is present normally in the blood of women but at lower level than in men. If free testosterone level is higher than normal in blood tests then you have to see an endocrinologist. It means that you have higher secretions than normally and there are tools to decrease it depending on the case

Testosterone is naturally found in the females, certainly at much lower levels than it is found in males. In fact, testosterone is the precursor molecule from which which estrogen is produced through the action of an enzyme called aromatase. 
So as long as the testosterone level falls within normal range of a healthy female, this is perfectly normal. If however the testosterone level is increased, further investigations may be required. The most common causes are usually related to ovarian cysts (polycystic ovary syndrome).
