Testosterone is an androgen hormone produced in the ovaries and the adrenal glands. Androgen hormones are identified as hormones we typically associate with males, though females produce them too but just in smaller amounts. Just like the other female reproductive hormones, testosterone aids in the menstrual cycle, bone health, libido, and breast development. Of course, these are all functions of testosterone when it is at optimal production. As females, we do not want our testosterone to become too elevated. This is a common symptom in women who have polycystic ovarian syndrome or PCOS. Let's discuss some symptoms of high testosterone, so you can understand some of the issues you might be struggling with.
