چکیده
Methods 42 women aged 18-35 were randomly selected with FAI > 4.5 or one of the following signs of hyperandrogenism: hirsutism, acne, menstrual disorder, with normal thyroid function. Patients were divided into two groups. The first group (n=23) received 12.5μg of T3 for 6 months and the second group (n=19) – placebo. After the 6-month course the treatment was changed accordingly. We estimated hirsutism by using the Ferriman–Gallwey score system, acne, testosterone (T) levels, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and free androgen index (FAI) and we also examined ovarian volume changes.
