What does it mean that the drug is androgenic?

Hi I have a question about drugs with the substance Itraconazole. The doctor said that the drug is androgenic, what does it mean? I would like to ask if it has a small anti-inflammatory effect? I will be grateful for your reply

The fact that the drug is androgenic means that it increases the secretion of androgens in the body, which can lead to symptoms such as excessive male hair (e.g. above the upper lip, on the chin, on the chest and around the nipples, on the abdomen, on the back), seborrhea and acne, male pattern baldness and menstrual disorders. Available studies indicate that Itraconazole has no effect on androgen levels in the blood. Some studies indicate that itraconazole may have anti-inflammatory effects, making it more effective in treating certain conditions than other antifungal drugs.
