RESUMO
Serum determinations of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone have been carried out in 13 prepubertal and adult patients who had been treated with courses of either oral or intravenous cyclophosphamide. All results were within the normal range for the patients' ages and sexual development. Although these results establish that gonadal endocrine function and pituitary-gonadal feedback relations may not be destroyed by cyclophosphamide, the possibility remains that prolonged cyclophosphamide therapy in young patients will result in some impairment of future fertility.
