Hello, I Am 40yrs, 5'6", 165lbs, Healthy. I Have Non

hello, I am 40yrs, 5'6", 165lbs, healthy. I have non classical cah (congenital adrenial hypoplasia). No symptoms.... Just off the charts numbers of androgens but Drs don't have me on anything because I don't have "symptoms".
Questions:
1. My sister (46) and grandmother (70) had breast cancer, my mother died of small cell lung cancer (56) and never smoked. I'm being tested for the brca soon, is brca linked in anyway to cah.

2. if I get ovary/tubes removed what kind of hormones would be considered.

3 how can high androgens not effect me somewhere other then the immediate physical?
