Hypogonadism in females
What are the types?
There are two types of hypogonadism: primary and secondary. Either type can occur at any age. Primary hypogonadism is often caused by a disorder or failure of the ovaries, which may result from a chromosomal abnormality such as Turner’s syndrome. It may also be caused by the surgical removal of the ovaries. In most cases, primary hypogonadism occurs as a natural consequence of the menopause.

Secondary hypogonadism is caused by an abnormality of the pituitary gland or of the hypothalamus (a part of the brain) that leads to underproduction of the hormones that stimulate the ovaries to function.
This abnormality may be due to a disorder such as a pituitary tumour or, rarely, to damage to the pituitary gland or the hypothalamus as a result of a head injury or an infection such as viral encephalitis. Sometimes, it results from excessive exercise or sudden weight loss.
What are the symptoms?
The symptoms depend on the age at which hypogonadism develops and the amount of sex hormones produced. If the onset occurs before puberty, hypogonadism causes abnormal puberty in females. If the onset occurs after puberty, symptoms may include:
- Reduced or absent menstruation.
- Reduced fertility.
- Hot flushed, excessive sweating, and anxiety, together with other symptoms associated with the menopause.
- Rarely, the pubic hair may recede and the breasts may become smaller.
There may also be other symptoms, depending on the underlying cause.
What might be done?
Your doctor may arrange for you to have blood tests to measure your hormone levels. You may also have CT scanning of the brain to look for a pituitary abnormality or ultrasound scanning of the ovaries.
The treatment depends on the cause. For example, a pituitary tumous may be removed by surgery. If the condition is due to weight loss, gaining weight may help. In some cases, hormone treatment may be prescribed to induce puberty. Hormone replacement therapy may be recommended for menopausal women to help to relieve symptoms of the menopause and protect against diseases associated with low levels of sex hormones, such as osteoporosis and coronary artery disease.

My name is hoover, my 18 year old daughter, Tricia was diagnosed with herpes 3 years ago. Since then, we have moved from one hospital to another. We tried all kinds of pills, but every effort to get rid of the virus was futile. The bubbles continued to reappear after a few months. My daughter was using 200mg acyclovir pills. 2 tablets every 6 hours and 15g of fusitin cream. and H5 POT. Permanganate with water to be applied twice a day, but all still do not show results. So, I was on the internet a few months ago, to look for other ways to save my only son. Only then did I come across a comment about the herbal treatment of Dr Imoloa and decided to give it a try.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations Gabriana. I was diagnosed with PCOS and never thought that I could have a child until I met Dr Obodo. I'm currently 5 months pregnant with twins. IVF was not an option for us because of the costs involved, so I went looking for an alternative. That's when I read about his fertility spells and decided to give it a try.
