  1. All results (apart from the HCG test) are obtained in the absence of sex hormone treatment and interpreted in comparison with male normal reference values16,17.
  2. HCG test: 1500 IE per day on 3 subsequent days; Interpretation of results on day three of HCG test: normal androstenedione/testosterone ratio; normal testosterone/DHT ratio; sufficient increase of testosterone after HCG.
