title: [Behavior of sex hormone and gonadotropin secretion in men with active nephrolithiasis].
abstract: Urinary excretion of calcium, magnesium, phosphate and oxalate in the condition of low-calcium diet, and the secretion of LH, FSH, testosterone and estradiol following LH-RH stimulation test have been determined in 26 men with active nephrolithiasis and in 14 healthy male subjects. Significantly higher urinary excretion of calcium and oxalate, and significantly lower excretion of magnesium was observed in men with nephrolithiasis as compared to healthy men. In addition, the patients with nephrolithiasis had significantly higher concentrations of testosterone, estradiol and FSH than the healthy controls. The results obtained suggest the participation of the gonadal hormones in the pathogenesis of active nephrolithiasis.
