Male Factor Infertility: Treatment Treatment options for male factor infertility have expanded greatly in recent years. Secondary hypogonadism is highly amenable to treatment with pulsatile GnRH or gonadotropins (see below). [gynecology.blogsky.com]

Etiology
Roughly 10% of infertility cases have a genetic etiology. Known genetic causes of infertility include chromosomal aberrations, single gene variants and phenotypes with multifactorial inheritance 3. [centogene.com]
Despite extensive evaluation, the etiology is established in fewer than one-half of patients. FIGURE 411-5 Evaluation of gynecomastia. E 2, 17β-estradiol; hCGβ, human chorionic gonadotropin β; T, testosterone. [clinicalgate.com]
In spite of extensive evaluation, the etiology is established in fewer than one-half of patients. Gynecomastia: Treatment When the primary cause can be identified and corrected, breast enlargement usually subsides over several months. [gynecology.blogsky.com]

In epidemiologic surveys, low total and bioavailable testosterone concentrations have been associated with decreased appendicular skeletal muscle mass and strength, decreased self-reported physical function, higher visceral fat mass, insulin resistance [clinicalgate.com]
In epidemiologic studies, testosterone concentrations are inversely related to waist-to-hip ratio and directly correlated with HDL cholesterol levels. [gynecology.blogsky.com]

Prevention
Leydig cell hypoplasia is an autosomal recessive disorder in which loss of function of the LHCGR gene in the male prevents normal sexual development. Two types of LCH have been defined (Toledo, 1992). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
