Hypothalamic hypogonadism in myotonic dystrophy
Obstetrics and Gynecology
|June 1, 1981
Abstract:
Hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis function was assessed in a postpubertal female patient with myotonic dystrophy and secondary amenorrhea. The results suggested a hypothalamic basis for the amenorrhea, confirming previous reports regarding the nature of gonadal failure in women with this multisystemic disorder.
