  • Title: Recurrent androgenicity in pregnancy: a case report and literature review.
    Author: Shortle BE, Warren MP, Tsin D.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1987 Sep; 70(3 Pt 2):462-6. PubMed ID: 2819797.
    Abstract:
    A case of recurrent androgenicity associated with pregnancy is described. The patient is a 32-year-old black woman with hirsutism and irregular menses who developed elevated androgen levels in the male range during a pregnancy, with remission after delivery. A recurrence of the elevated androgen levels was noted during a subsequent pregnancy, again with remission after a termination. We have analyzed the possible etiologic mechanisms underlying this condition and reviewed the literature of similar cases.
