Hyperandrogenism-clinical features resulting from increased androgen production and/or action-is not uncommon in peripubertal girls. Hyperandrogenism affects 3 to 20% of adolescent girls and often is associated with hyperandrogenemia. In prepubertal girls, the most common etiologies of androgen excess are premature adrenarche (60%) and congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH; 4%). In pubertal girls, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS; 20-40%) and CAH (14%) are the most common diagnoses related to androgen excess. Androgen-secreting ovarian or adrenal tumors are rare (0.2%). Early pubic hair, acne, and/or hirsutism are the most common clinical manifestations, but signs of overt virilization in adolescent girls-rapid progression of pubic hair or hirsutism, clitoromegaly, voice deepening, severe cystic acne, growth acceleration, increased muscle mass, and bone age advancement past height age-should prompt detailed evaluation. This article addresses the clinical manifestations of and management considerations for non-PCOS-related hyperandrogenism in adolescent girls. We propose an algorithm to aid diagnostic evaluation of androgen excess in this specific patient population.
高雄激素血症-由雄激素产生和/或作用增加引起的临床特征-在青春期前女孩中并不少见。高雄激素血症影响 3%至 20%的青春期女孩,常与高雄激素血症有关。在青春期前女孩中,雄激素过多的最常见病因是早熟性肾上腺皮质功能亢进症(60%)和先天性肾上腺皮质增生症(CAH;4%)。在青春期女孩中,多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS;20%-40%)和 CAH(14%)是与雄激素过多相关的最常见诊断。雄激素分泌性卵巢或肾上腺肿瘤很少见(0.2%)。阴毛早现、痤疮和/或多毛症是最常见的临床表现,但青春期女孩出现明显的男性化迹象-阴毛或多毛症迅速进展、阴蒂肥大、声音变深、严重的囊性痤疮、生长加速、肌肉量增加和骨龄超过身高年龄-应提示进行详细评估。本文介绍了青春期女孩非 PCOS 相关高雄激素血症的临床表现和治疗注意事项。我们提出了一种算法,以帮助诊断评估该特定患者群体的雄激素过多。
