Coming soonHypogonadotropic hypogonadism, also known as secondary or central hypogonadism, is an endocrine disorder characterized by impaired gonadal function resulting from deficient stimulation by the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis.
It affects both male and female pediatric and adult populations, stemming from congenital defects, genetic anomalies such as Kallmann syndrome, or acquired structural, functional, or systemic insults to the hypothalamus or anterior pituitary gland.
Pathophysiologically, insufficient secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, luteinizing hormone, or follicle-stimulating hormone leads to abnormally low levels of circulating sex steroids.
Clinically, this manifests as delayed, arrested, or absent puberty in adolescents, and infertility, sexual dysfunction, decreased bone mineral density, and loss of secondary sexual characteristics in adults.
