Context: Women with Turner syndrome (TS) have reduced levels of androgens due to ovarian failure.
Hypotheses: Morbidity associated with TS, such as bone fragility, metabolic changes, obesity, neurocognitive profile, and sexual problems may partly relate to androgen insufficiency and improve on androgen replacement therapy (ART).
Objectives: The objective of the study was to determine the effect of androgens on morbidity in TS.
