    Gonadotropin therapy in HH men usually is able to generate enough sperm for fertility to occur, however sperm count is still lower than normal.

    Administration of luteinizing hormone (LH) (or human chorionic gonadotropin) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is very effective in the treatment of male infertility due to hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. [58] Although controversial, [59] off-label clomiphene citrate, an antiestrogen, may also be effective by elevating gonadotropin levels. [58]
