    Abstract Disclosure: J. Hayes dorado: None. M. Calla Ayala: None. R. Zapata Lafuente: None. C. Ramos Bustencio: None. C. Gorena Montalvo: None. I. Chiri Porcel: None. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and biochemical characteristics in female adolescents diagnosed with NCCAH in comparison to female age-matched healthy controls. A total of 39 female adolescents, aged 10-15 years, were enrolled in this study, including 24 patients with NCCAH (mean age 12.9±1.4 years) and 15 healthy controls (mean age 13.2±1.1 years). Data was collected on anthropometry, clinical features of hyperandrogenism (hirsutism, acne, alopecia) and menstrual irregularities, and ovarian ultrasound was performed. Hormonal and metabolic markers were assessed. Hirsutism was present in 91.7% of the NCCAH females and 46.7% of the controls (p<0.001), while acne and alopecia were defined in 83.3% and 66.7% of the NCCAH patients, respectively, compared to 33.3% and 26.7% of the healthy females (p acne <0.0001 and p alopecia =0.003). No significant difference was found in the rate of menstrual disorders between the groups. The BMI and waist circumference did not differ between NCCAH females and healthy controls. No significant difference was found in the parameters of lipid and glucose metabolism between the groups. Testosterone and basal levels of 17 OH Progesterone were significantly higher in NCCAH females (p<0.01). Polycystic ovaries were detected by ultrasound in 8.3% of the NCCAH and 6.7% of the controls, without significant difference between the groups. NCCAH in female adolescents is characterized by clinical and biochemical hyperandrogenism. No significant difference was found in the rate of menstrual disorders, the BMI, waist circumference and the parameters of lipid and glucose metabolism between the groups.
