Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism Before and After Transsphenoidal Surgery for Non‐Functioning Pituitary Adenoma

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The effect of transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) on the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal (HPG) axis in patients with non‐functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPA) is underexplored, especially in women. Our aim was to investigate the HPG axis function before and after TSS, its association with quality of life (QoL), and to identify factors that ...

Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1002-1016, May 2026.
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...
