摘要：

Disorders of androgen excess in women are common in the practice of dermatology. The literature regarding the evaluation and treatment of women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism (acne, hirsutism, and alopecia) is vast and is contained in numerous subspecialty journals. At first glance, the basic science knowledge required to understand androgen biology appears exceedingly complex. However, an understanding of androgen physiology and a familiarity with the relevant literature are the basis of appropriate evaluations and treatment recommendations. In the first of this two-part series, we review the basic science of androgen biology and pathophysiology in women. The second part of this series will cover the evaluation of suspected hyperandrogenic women and the therapeutic modalities that are available.
