Basal and peak T levels after hCG test. Basal T levels (left) and peak testosterone levels (right) after the hCG test in patients with ambiguous genitalia (◆: without AR mutation, ■: with AR mutation) and normal control subject (△) in this study. A line shows previously reported normal mean basal T values(30, 31). Data of patients with AR mutation at ages of 8 mo (# 25a: basal and peak T level=0.41 and 6.94 ng/ml, respectively), 1 yr 9 mo (# 25b: basal and peak T level=0.3 and 8.3 ng/ml, respectively), 3 yr 8 mo (# 26: basal and peak T level=0.2 and 8.5 ng/ml, respectively), and 4 yr (# 24: basal T level=0.3 ng/ml) were obtained from patients 25, 25, 26 and 24, respectively. Patients 25 and 26 were cousins (R840H) and both were social females (Quigley’s grade 4 and 5, respectively). Patient 24 was a social male, Quigley’s grade 3.
