Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism

Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, also called secondary hypogonadism, occurs when the pituitary gland or hypothalamus produces too little LH and FSH. Without these signals, the testicles cannot make adequate testosterone or sperm.

Key points

  • Hypogonadism has two forms: primary, where the testicles themselves are damaged, and secondary (hypogonadotropic), where the pituitary fails to send adequate signals.
  • Because it is a rare condition, diagnosis is often delayed; on average it can take more than six years to receive an accurate diagnosis.
