Purpose Hyperandrogenic intrauterine environment may lead to the development of
metabolic disorders in offspring in their later life. In this study, we aimed to determine the …

Context Growing preclinical evidence suggests that hormonal programming by androgens in
utero may contribute to cardiovascular disease risk in adult offspring. However, the effect of …

Purpose Adverse intrauterine environment may predispose offspring to cardio-metabolic
dysfunction in later life. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of maternal …

Purpose Prenatal androgen exposure could be a source of early programming, leading to
the development of cardiometabolic diseases in later life. In this study, we aimed to examine …

Context There are no reported data from prospective long-term studies on the relation of
androgen levels in young women with development of metabolic syndrome (MetS) before …

Objective Women with metabolic syndrome (MetS) have higher endogenous testosterone
(T) levels than unaffected women. This study investigated whether hyperandrogenemia (HA) …

OBJECTIVE: We sought to prospectively examine whether childbearing is associated with
higher incidence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) after delivery among women of …

Menopause is the end of reproductive life in women, associated with a substantial decrease
in estrogen concentrations and a less intense one in androgen concentrations, resulting in a …

Objective: During the menopausal transition, total testosterone (T) remains unchanged,
whereas estrogen decreases markedly, creating a state of relative androgen excess. We …

Context: Although there is evidence of metabolic risks in young women with irregular
menses and androgen excess, persistence of risks after menopause is unclear. Objective …
