Abstract
Plasma testosterone levels were measured by the method Finkelstein et al. (1961) before and after oral administration of dehydroepiandrosterone and [DELTA]4 -androstenedione in normal women. The results suggest in vivo conversion of dehydroepiandrosterone and [DELTA]4-androstenedione to testosterone. The implications of these findings are discussed.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
