[Treatment of hypogonadism in childhood].
Specificity of therapeutic approaches to hypogonadism in childhood and the need of high standard hormonal preparations are stressed. Male hypogonadism can in rare instances be treated even during infancy. Therapy of hypogonadism during puberty is, however, more common. The general rule for therapy of pubertal hypogonadism is to mimic physiological puberty, i.e. to begin with small doses and slowly increase them gradually to reach the level of adult dosage within 4-5 years.
