Evidence of clinical and/or biochemical androgen excess poses a unique differential in postmenopausal women. Some signs and symptoms of postmenopausal hyperandrogenism can be normal and attributed to the natural aging process. However, the causes of androgen excess in this group include both nontumorous and tumorous causes. Treatment of androgen excess may improve both quality of life and long-term metabolic outcomes.
绝经后妇女出现临床和/或生化雄激素过多的证据具有独特的鉴别诊断意义。一些绝经后高雄激素血症的体征和症状可能是正常的，归因于自然衰老过程。然而，该组患者雄激素过多的原因包括非肿瘤性和肿瘤性原因。雄激素过多的治疗可能改善生活质量和长期代谢结局。
