Impact of age at first visit on glycolipid metabolism, bone metabolism, and fertility potential in patients with Klinefelter syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Classic Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is characterized by one extra X chromosome (47, XXY), leading to hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and higher risk of alterations in glycolipid homeostasis, cardiovascular diseases, and low bone mineral density.
