The value of the low-dose dexamethasone suppression test in the differential diagnosis of hyperandrogenism in women.

The value of the low-dose dexamethasone suppression test in the differential diagnosis of hyperandrogenism in women.

We studied 211 hyperandrogenic women with respect to clinical presentation, basal androgen levels, and the degree of cortisol and androgen suppression during a 48-h low-dose (2 mg) dexamethasone-suppression test (LDDST) to exclude ovarian and adrenal tumors. In 42 women with elevated testosterone le...
