Secondary Hypogonadism
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Secondary hypogonadism is a condition in which the sex glands produce fewer hormones due to a problem in the signals that come from the brain, specifically from the pituitary gland or the hypothalamus, rather than from the gonads themselves.
Frequent symptoms: decreased sexual desire, tiredness, changes in fertility, and, depending on the case, other manifestations related to hormonal balance.
When to see a doctor? When these changes are persistent or affect your well-being and it's a good idea to look for their cause.
Which specialist treats it? In men, the urologist takes part in the study of these disorders, while in women the gynecologist is involved; both can coordinate with other areas depending on the case. If you recognize these symptoms, a professional evaluation helps understand the origin of the imbalance.
