Plasma FSH and LH Measured by Radioimmunoassay in Normal and Pathologic Conditions in Men

  • Chapter
The Human Testis

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 10))

Abstract

Rational therapy of hypogonadal states in men depends in part upon determining whether the problem results from failure of the pituitary to secrete gonadotropins or from failure of the testes to respond. The use of double antibody radioimmunoassays for plasma follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in attempts to distinguish these pathophysiologic alternatives among patients seen on the clinical service of the Endocrinology Branch, National Cancer Institute will be reviewed here.
