Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of autosomal-recessive diseases characterized by a defect in one of the enzymes or transport proteins involved in the synthesis of cortisol in the adrenal cortex. Of the seven described forms of CAH, 21-hydroxylase deficiency is the most prevalent. This study aims to evaluate and enhance diagnostic methods for CAH in female patients in Uzbekistan.
