Plasma concentrations of adrenal androgens (DHEA and DHEA-S) and the growth patterns of four male patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism have been compared and contrasted with those of eight male patients wit idiopathic delayed puberty. As a group the patients with HH presented at an older age with delayed puberty and normal heights; the growth rate and pattern have been normal except for an absence of the pubertal growth spurt. Adrenal androgens were usually normal for chronologic age and high for bone age. The patients with IDP presented at a younger age, usually with short stature, low adrenal androgens relative to the chronologic age, but normal relative to the bone age. Patients with IDP appear to exhibit a delay in maturation of both the adrenal cortex and the hypothalamo-pituitary gonadal axis usually with short stature and retardation of the bone age. The importance in measurements of adrenal androgens in the diagnosis of HH and of IDP is emphasized.
