Hypogonadism (C0020619)

Definition (MSH)Condition resulting from deficient gonadal functions, such as GAMETOGENESIS and the production of GONADAL STEROID HORMONES. It is characterized by delay in GROWTH, germ cell maturation, and development of secondary sex characteristics. Hypogonadism can be due to a deficiency of GONADOTROPINS (hypogonadotropic hypogonadism) or due to primary gonadal failure (hypergonadotropic hypogonadism).
Definition (CSP)condition resulting from or characterized by abnormally decreased functional activity of the gonads, with retardation of growth and sexual development.
