The effect of delayed puberty on peak bone mineral density in men is unknown. To determine whether such a delay reduces normal peak bone density and leads to osteopenia during adulthood, we measured radial bone mineral density by single-photon absorptiometry and spinal bone mineral density by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry in 23 men who had a history of constitutionally delayed puberty and 21 men who underwent normal puberty. Their mean ages were 26 and 24 years, respectively. The groups were matched for other factors known to affect bone mass.
