dehydroepiandrosterone and Ovarian Cysts

dehydroepiandrosterone has been researched along with Ovarian Cysts in 23 studies

Dehydroepiandrosterone: A major C19 steroid produced by the ADRENAL CORTEX. It is also produced in small quantities in the TESTIS and the OVARY. Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) can be converted to TESTOSTERONE; ANDROSTENEDIONE; ESTRADIOL; and ESTRONE. Most of DHEA is sulfated (DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULFATE) before secretion.
dehydroepiandrosterone : An androstanoid that is androst-5-ene substituted by a beta-hydroxy group at position 3 and an oxo group at position 17. It is a naturally occurring steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands.

Ovarian Cysts: General term for CYSTS and cystic diseases of the OVARY.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Exogenous dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) produces ovarian cysts and atretic follicles in mice."3.72Induction of apoptosis and ovarian cyst formation in the mouse ovary by dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). ( Hasselblatt, K; Kim, HH; Shaipanich, M; Yeh, J, 2003)
" Based on their experience, the authors suggest an inexpensive investigative strategy in hyperandrogenic females consisting of the following: the first step depends upon the clinical symptoms--in cases of hirsutism with regular menstrual cycles, plasma testosterone (T) and plasma dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHA-S) are assayed, and the basal body temperature chart is recorded."3.66Investigative strategy of hyperandrogenism in women. ( Buvat, J; Buvat-Herbaut, M; Dewailly, D; Fossati, P; Marcolin, G; Racadot, A, 1983)
"A plasma testosterone/androstenedione (T/A) ratio was calculated in 15 women with possible ovarian neoplasms and androgen excess and whose mean plasma concentration of testosterone approached or was greater than a twofold elevation."3.66Testosterone/androstenedione ratio in the evaluation of women with ovarian androgen excess. ( Morris, CV; Wiebe, RH, 1983)
"Preterm ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome is a rare syndrome in which preterm infant girls have hypogastric, upper leg and labial swelling accompanied by elevated serum oestradiol levels and ovarian follicular cysts on ultrasound."1.46Atypical case of preterm ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. ( Durst, MA; Narvey, M; Wicklow, B, 2017)
"Polycystic ovarian syndrome and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism occurred significantly more often in women with TLE than in the general female population."1.27Reproductive endocrine disorders in women with partial seizures of temporal lobe origin.
