ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical features,diagnosis and treatment of male idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH).MethodsClinical data of 92 male IHH cases were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsThe mean age at evaluation was 21.0 ± 3.2 yrs,and 52 patients were diagnosed with Kallman syndrome (KS; IHH with anosmia/hyposmia) while the remainder were normosmic IHH (nIHH).All had normal radiological imaging of the hypothalamic and pituitary areas.The level of serum LH,FSH and T was low,and the clinical parameters (development of secondary sexual characteristics,sexual function,and serum testosterone levels.) were significantly improved after hormone replacement therapy.ConclusionsDiagnosis and differential diagnosis of IHH can be clearly defined based on clinical features and laboratory results.Hormone replacement therapy is an effective treatment option.
