Distribution of body hair in young Australian women and associations with serum androgen concentrations.

CONCLUSIONS: A self-assessed mF-G score ≥10 is indicative of excess body hair. Androstenedione, as well as testosterone, should be measured when hyperandrogenism is being evaluated. The lack of association between mF-G scores and the 11-oxygenated androgens highlights the need for a better understanding of these steroids. PMID: 32025718 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
