So your body makes certain chemicals called hormones, and one of these is called androgen. Androgen is what makes boys and men have deep voices and grow hair on their face and body.
But sometimes people's bodies make too much androgen, and that can cause problems like acne or even cancer.
That's where androgen synthesis inhibitors come in. They are like little helpers that can stop the body from making too much androgen.
Think of it like a switch that you can turn on and off. When the switch is on, your body makes androgen. But when you take an androgen synthesis inhibitor, it turns off the switch so your body stops making too much androgen.
This can help make you feel better if you have too much androgen in your body. But it's important to talk to a doctor first, because too little androgen can also cause problems.
