The deviation of testosterone in the female

The production of the required amount of testosterone is very important for a female body. But a number of factors can significantly affect its synthesis. First of all, these are natural causes, such as:

• period of pregnancy, during which the production of testosterone increases 4 times. This
• is due to the additional active production of the hormone by placenta. Especially if a boy is to be born;
• the period of menopause, when for natural reasons the ovaries stop working actively and
• the production of the hormone is greatly reduced;
• androgen also increases during ovulation, which increases female attractiveness in a natural way;
• hereditary predisposition to excess in the level of testosterone.

Changes in hormone levels are strongly influenced by lifestyle and certain habits:

• a strict diet with a limited amount of rapidly digested carbohydrates significantly reduces the amount of testosterone;
• smoking and alcohol contribute to an uncontrolled increase or decrease in hormone production; avitaminosis (lack of vitamins) often causes disorders associated with insufficient hormone production;
• a sedentary standard of living and lack of systematic sports training affects changes in the hormonal balance, as well as obesity;
• long abstinence or lack of a full sexual life contribute to an increase in the level of the hormone;
• failure to produce hormones in normal amounts occurs after prolonged use of medications. In particular, the amount of testosterone is strongly affected by oral contraceptive medications that contain estrogen-progestogen.

Often, changes in the rate of testosterone are associated with diseases.

These include:

• diseases of the uterus (endometriosis);
• adrenal insufficiency;
• pituitary adenoma;
• a postoperative period when the ovary is removed, when the level of testosterone also
• decreases and in this case hormonal therapy is prescribed;
• dysfunction or hyperfunction of the adrenal cortex, in which the release of the hormone occurs
• uncontrollably;
• breast cancer, cysts and ovarian tumors.
