Se estudiaron 63 pacientes hirsutas ingresadas en la sala de endocrinologia clinica del IEEM, 36 con poliquistosis ovarica (PO) y 27 hirsutas constitucionales (HC).Las PO mostraron una menor inhibicion de los 17 OH, 17 Cs y Ptriol durante las pruebas de inhibicion adrenal con Dxm (p< 0,05). Las hirsutas con PO tenian una mayor excrecion de Ptriol en condiciones basales y durante la estimulacion ovarica con HCG (p < 0,05). La eliminacion de E y de las fracciones 11 ceto y A de los 17 Cs fue similar en ambos grupos. La excrecion de la fraccion DHA fue mayor en las HC en condiciones basales y durante la estimulacion adrenal con ACTH (p < 0,05).Se observo un incremento mayor de la fraccion Et durante la estimulacion ovarica con HCG en las pacientes con PO (p < ,05). A pesar de las diferencias encontradas en la eliminacion de compuestos esteroideco entre las pacientes con PO y las HC, consideradas como grupo, existio una gran variabilidad y solamiento en los resultados de las pruebas que hacen dificil precisar, en casos particulares, la existencia o no de poliquistosis ovarica por los resultados de estas pruebas
