Purpose of the Procedure
- Identifying the root cause of elevated male hormones (androgens).
- Differentiating between stromal hyperthecosis and hormone-producing tumors.
- Establishing a treatment plan to manage virilization symptoms.
This advanced diagnostic workup identifies causes of postmenopausal virilization by measuring testosterone levels and utilizing high-resolution imaging to detect ovarian stromal hyperthecosis, ensuring a precise and effective treatment plan.
Scientific name: Diagnostic Assessment of Ovarian Stromal Hyperthecosis
A specialized diagnostic procedure evaluating ovarian stromal hyperthecosis. It involves precise hormonal testing and advanced imaging to detect hyperandrogenism causes in women, particularly post-menopause, to prevent further health complications.
