Markedly elevated serum testosterone in pregnancy without fetal virilization

Nathan G. Berger, MD, John T. Repke, MD and J Donald Woodruff, MD

From the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland

Abstract

A 37-year-old woman with a history consistent with polycystic ovarian disease became pregnant and developed exceedingly high levels of serum testosterone. The female fetus showed no evidence of virilization. A clinical diagnosis of bilateral theca lutein cysts was made. Modes of fetal protection from maternal androgenemia as well as suggestions for future investigations are discussed.
