[Serum levels of LH and FSH in patients with adreno-genital syndrome (AGS) (author's transl)].
Serum levels of LH, FSH, testosterone and 17beta-estradiol were estimated by radioimmunoassay in 13 children suffering from AGS. Hormone levels were determined during and after substitution therapy and were compared with values registered in normal subjects. After therapy was stopped a statistically significant rise of testosterone and 17beta-estradiol was observed, but no changes in the serum levels of LH and FSH was noted. The discrepancies between the two observations are discussed.
