Default Low Estrogen but hight Testosterone?

Hi, I'm a thin sister, too thin actually. People are always commenting on how thin I am. I was actually a chubby baby till about the age of 8 when I started getting really thin. I also am very small boned. Do you think the weight loss is due to the fact that I have low Estrogen and high testosterone?

Thanks to anyone who responds

Could it be genetics? I think that is what many of us thin Cysters, thin. We may have PCOS but somewhere lies the genes that keep us thin.

I don't know if low estrogen and high testosterone could make you thin. It would make more sense that high test. would increase your weight and body mass. Possibly your estrogen is low and test. high because of PCOS and if the hormones were to straighten out this would not be the case. Do you have other symptoms of androgen excess that lowering your test. would help with?
