Androstenedione

  • Androstenedione
    • Reference Range: 50 – 220
    • Units: ng/dl
    • Androstenedione occupies a pivotal position in the human endocrine system as a direct precursor to the primary sex hormones, yet its role in health and disease remains poorly understood by mainstream medicine. This hormone is produced through the conversion of pregnenolone into DHEA or progesterone, which then generates androstenedione as the immediate precursor to testosterone, other androgens, estradiol, and other estrogens [A-5].
