Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most prevalent condition associated with increased androgens, but some rare diseases, e.g., congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), should also be considered in the differential diagnosis of hyperandrogenemia. The potential role of incretin hormones has been thoroughly studied in different metabolic conditions, but data about women with PCOS and CAH are insufficient.
