high testosterone without high androgenisation is kind of a hallmark of AIS.  i mean....it kind of defines the condition, yeah?  the other potential thing you might be looking at is 5a reductase deficiency, although that generally (but not always) presents with ambiguous genitalia/hypospadias.  5a reductase will show normal/high testosterone, undervirilisation, and extremely low/absent dihydrotestosterone levels.

Good luck with your appointment.  I hope this doctor can help you sort things out.

Thank you :) I'm going to try really, really hard to stay comfortable with the subject matter long enough to communicate my concerns this time. Agh white coat anxiety.

Don't worry about the white coat syndrome. I wear one so if you like pretend you are talking to me, and I'm a pretty good listener!
