    Individuals with hypergonadotropic hypogonadism also exhibit gonadotropin levels (FSH and LH) that are above normal range and gonadal hormone levels (estrogen in females and testosterone in males) that are below normal range, so these biochemical parameters will be measured via a blood test. [12] However for young males before adolescence, anti ...

    If you do have low testosterone, your healthcare provider will test your LH and FSH levels to determine if the root of your low T is in the testicles or the brain (i.e. if you have primary or ...

    Since LH is secreted as pulses, it is necessary to follow its concentration over a sufficient period of time to get proper information about its blood level. During reproductive years, typical levels are between 1 and 20 IU/L. Physiologic high LH levels are seen during the LH surge (v.s.) and typically last 48 hours.

    Testing serum LH and FSH levels are often used to assess hypogonadism in women, particularly when menopause is believed to be happening. These levels change during a woman's normal menstrual cycle, so the history of having ceased menstruation coupled with high levels aids the diagnosis of being menopausal.

    Treatment includes administered gonadotropins, which, therefore, work as fertility medication. Such can either be produced by extraction and purification from urine or be produced by recombinant DNA. Failure or loss of the gonads usually results in elevated levels of LH and FSH in the blood. [10] [11]

    Men and women exhibit different symptoms for hypergonadism. A few of the symptoms that men can experience are increased sex drive, early balding, excessive muscle mass, and acne.

    GnRH levels are thus checked indirectly via blood testing. [15] These blood tests measure the levels of hormones such as prolactin, estradiol, testosterone, TSH, but specifically LH and FSH levels which will be totally or partially absent in HH. [15] Exogenous GnRH can be used as a diagnostic tool.

    Treatment for both males and females with KS/CHH normally consists of one of three options which can be used for both hormone replacement therapy and/or fertility treatment. [3] [4] Sex hormone replacement (testosterone or oestrogen & progesterone). Gonadotropin therapy (medications that replicate the activity of FSH and LH). GnRH pulsatile ...
