Rather than focusing on excessive theoretical details, each chapter presents a unique clinical vignette or scenario, the relevant aspects of which are followed throughout the entire chapter, correlating specific fertility issues with clinical findings [books.google.com]

In this report, we offer a brief overview of the diagnosis and management of IHH and present the case of a 27 year old male with undiagnosed IHH. [omicsonline.org]

Thus, a thorough assessment for ophthalmological, neurological and endocrinological changes in patients presenting with one of the key features is recommended. [neurology.org]

[…] in testosterone that occurs in the afternoon.[ 4-6 ] Screening for hypogonadism in the general population is not indicated.[ 4 ] Case finding in selected circumstances is, however, acceptable, such as when testing for low testosterone is part of the workup [bcmj.org]

Diagnosis and Treatment After our usual workup, and the obvious diagnosis of hyopogonadal hypogonadism, treatment was started with HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), an LH analog which stimulates testicular testosterone production. [jeffreydachmd.com]

This case-based guide is written from the clinician's perspective, dealing with a defined male infertility problem, tracing the actual clinical pathway arriving at the diagnosis, and discussing the treatment options and the likely outcome. [books.google.com]

In general, treatment options most require lifelong treatment but for the rare cases of reversal [ 5 ]. [omicsonline.org]

Treatment and prognosis Treatment is primarily aimed at restoring normal pubertal development and in some case normal fertility. The former can be achieved by administration of exogenous sex steroids, appropriate to the gender of the patient. [radiopaedia.org]

Discussion The prognosis of inducing ovulation in patients of HH is favorable though they require high doses of hMG. The baseline FSH and LH values do not predict an individual patient's response to hMG. [fertilityscienceresearch.org]

Some etiologies, such as autosomal dominant or X-linked Kallmann syndrome, raise the question of hereditary transmission, leading to increasing demands for genetic counseling and monitoring of medically assisted pregnancies. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Of all the causes of infertility, HH is the least common etiology. [fertilityscienceresearch.org]

If the patient has normal pubertal development and a uterus, the most common etiology is congenital outflow tract obstruction with a transverse vaginal septum or imperforate hymen. [aafp.org]

Our case reports suggest that maybe screening for hypogonadism in all HIV-infected men might help to understand its etiology. [edmcasereports.com]
