Abstract：
:Sexual behavior of men with secondary hypogonadism was studied. Seven of the thirteen subjects presented with hypogonadism secondary to isolated gonadotropin (Gn) deficit, whereas the other six had idiopathic prepubertal anterior panhypopituitarism. Testosterone (T) levels were low and did not differ between the two groups. All subjects were evaluated both during replacement therapy (Gn in the first group; Gn plus cortisone and thyroxine in the second group) and 2 months after withdrawal of Gn therapy. During and after withdrawal of Gn administration, men with isolated deficit of Gn retained sexual activity and nocturnal penile tumescence, although they were partially compromised compared with a control group; on the other hand, panhypopituitarics reported compromised sexual function during Gn treatment and no sexual function when Gn therapy was not given. We conclude that different lesions of the hypothalamus-pituitary axis were accompanied by varying degrees of sexual impairment in the two groups of men presenting both secondary hypogonadism and very low T levels.
