Management
HRT
Pulsatile LHRH or hCG = stimulate testicular growth, more complex
than testosterone replacement
When fertility desired, pulsatile luteinizing hormone-releasing
hormone (LHRH) or (more commonly) with a schedule of injections of
human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and follicle-stimulating hormone
(FSH).
Removal of gonadal tissue (significant risk of gonadoblastoma and
carcinoma)
- Males with nonfunctioning testicular tissue should undergo
orchiectomy and replacement with prostheses
Reevaluate patients with hypogonadism receiving HRT every 6-12
months.
