Endocrine disorders Flashcards
Defective androgen receptor labs
increased T and LH
Testosterone secreting tumor labs
Increased T, decreased LH
Primary hypogonadism labs
decreased T, increased LH
Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism labs
Decreased T, decreased LH
Kallman syndrome
anosmia - olfactory bulb defect
X linked KAL chain
Primary amenorrhea, delayed puberty
Decreased GnRH, Decreased LH and FSH
Androgen insensitivity Syndrome
46,XY appears normal female - female external genitalia, rudimentary vagina
have testes in labia - lumps in labia majora
Defective androgen receptor
Antimullerian hormone still present - degenerates paranephritic ducts, no upper vagina
DHT develops external genitals - default to female = lower vagina
little or no pubic hair
High T, high estrogen, high LH
5 alpha reductase deficiency
No T –> DHT
ambiguous genitalia until puberty –> increased T = increased growth of external genitalia
normal T and normal estrogen
normal/slight increase in LH
internal genitalia normal
Female Pseudohermaphroditism
XX, have ovaries
virilized or ambiguous genitalia
Inappropriate androgen exposure during early gestation
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia - 21 b hydroxylase or 11b hydroxylase deficiency
Male pseudohermaphroditism
XY, testicular tissue
female or ambiguous external genitalia
androgen sensitivity syndrome
True hermaphroditism
XX and XY
Ovarian and testicular tissue
ambiguous genitalia
cross over of SRY gene to X
merging of 2 fertilized eggs
