The concentration of testosterone was measured in the plasma of 16 healthy women in late pregnancy and in 14 of these after delivery. The mean testosterone concentration was found to be elevated in late pregnancy, although the range overlapped with the normal. There was a prompt return to normal concentrations after delivery. The significance of the results and of inactivation of testosterone by protein binding are discussed.
