5α‐Androstane‐3α, 17β‐diol (3α‐diol) and 5α‐androstane‐3β, 17β‐diol (3β‐diol) were measured in human peripheral plasma by gas chromatography‐selected ion monitoring as their t ‐butyl dimethylsilyl ethers. The purification of the plasma extract involved a Sep‐Pak® C 18 cartridge and high‐performance liquid chromatography. The concentrations (mean ± SD) of the two diols in four normal males are: 213 ± 111 pg/ml for the 3α‐diol and 246 ± 133 pg/ml for the 3β‐diol.
