Abstract
Hyperandrogenism is one of the most common endocrine diseases affecting adult women. Clinical presentation includes hirsutism, with or without menstrual disturbances (oligomenorrhea, amenorrhea) and, less frequently, virilization. We report the case of a woman of reproductive age with hyperandrogenism, secondary amenorrhea, and virilization. The diagnostic role of laboratory tests and imaging techniques is discussed.
