Levels of testosterone, free testosterone, oestrogen, LH, FSH, prolactin were measured in 39 dialysed men. A LHRH stimulation test was performed. This study was analysed in function of the underlying renal disease, the duration of hemodialysis, and serum ferritin levels. In chronic glomerulonephritis serum gonadotrophins concentrations were significantly higher than in chronic interstitial nephritis or polycystic disease. A correlation between prolactin and ferritin was found, which may reflect the pituitary iron overload. Free testosterone levels were significantly lower in patients with gynecomastia (23-29 patients). In fact, the most direct relationship that we found with gynecomastia in dialysed men was with the free testosterone/oestrogen ratio.
