Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism Revisited
Impaired testicular function, i.e., hypogonadism, can result from a primary testicular disorder (hypergonadotropic) or occur secondary to hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction (hypogonadotropic).

Frequency and correlates of hypogonadism in adult males with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Background and Aims: There is increasing awareness about an association between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and male hypogonadism. However, data are sparse and less uniform with respect to factors associated with hypogonadism in males with T2DM. This

Syndrome of hypogonadism in males
Hypogonadism in men - a clinical and laboratory syndrome caused by decreased secretion of testosterone by the testes. Depending on the level of destruction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis we distinguish two main forms of hypogonadism ...

Testosterone Deficiency in Sickle Cell Disease: Recognition and Remediation
Hypogonadism is common in men with sickle cell disease (SCD) with prevalence rates as high as 25%. Testicular failure (primary hypogonadism) is established as the principal cause for this hormonal abnormality, although secondary hypogonadism and ...

The unsolved case of “bone-impairing analgesics”. The endocrine effects of opioids on bone metabolism [PDF]
The current literature describes the possible risks for bone fracture in chronic analgesics users. There are three main hypotheses that could explain the increased risk of fracture associated with central analgesics, such as opioids: 1) the increased ...
