CONTEXT: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is common and diagnosis requires an elevated testosterone. The clinical importance of adrenal 11-oxyandrogens in PCOS is unclear.
OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine if 11-oxyandrogens 1) better identify PCOS diagnosis compared to testosterone, 2) predict clinical comorbidities of PCOS, and 3) are altered with an combined oral contraceptive pill (COCP) or metformin therapy.
METHODS: Data from 200 adolescent female participants aged 12 to 21 years, most with obesity, enrolled across 6 studies in pediatric endocrinology were included: 70 non-PCOS controls, 115 untreated PCOS, 9 PCOS + obesity treated with COCP, and 6 PCOS + obesity treated with metformin. 11-Hydroxyandrostenedione (11-OHA4), 11-hydroxytestosterone (1-OHT), 11-ketotestosterone (11-KT), and testosterone were measured with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Data between 1) untreated PCOS and controls and 2) untreated PCOS and the 2 treatment groups were compared.
RESULTS: Untreated girls with PCOS had higher 11-OHA4 (P = .003) and 11-OHT (P = .005) compared to controls, but not 11-KT (P = .745). Elevated 11-OHA4 remained statistically significant after controlling for obesity. Testosterone better predicted PCOS status compared to 11-oxyandrogens (receiver operating characteristic curve analysis: 11-OHA4 area under the curve [AUC] = 0.620, 11-OHT AUC = 0.638; testosterone AUC = 0.840). Among untreated PCOS patients, all 3 11-oxyandrogens correlated with hirsutism severity. 11-KT (P = .039) and testosterone (P < .006) were lower in those on COCP treatment compared to untreated PCOS. Metformin treatment had no effect on 11-oxyandrogens, although testosterone was lower (P = .01).
CONCLUSION: Although 11-oxyandrogens do not aid in the diagnosis of PCOS, they relate to excess hair growth. COCP treatment may related to 11-KT; however, further work is needed to determine causality, relationship with metabolic outcomes, and the clinical utility of measuring these androgens in PCOS.
