Abstract: The purpose of the study, was to determine whether maternal serum levels of androgens are higher in patients with preeclampsia than in matched normotensive control subjects. Serum total testosterone, DHEAS, SHBG and estradiol were measured in 100 pregnant womens in third trimester complicated with preeclampsia and the results were compared with 99 healthy pregnant women in the same period. There was no significant relation in serum total testosterone, DHEAS, estradiol and SHBG between two groups. Although the role of androgens as the cause of preeclampsia was not proved in this study, more research is needed to find the definite etiology of this disorder.
