Women with CAH experience menstrual irregularities due to androgen and glucocorticoid precursor interference with endometrial development and ovulation.

Fertility rates vary, with a lower prevalence of motherhood, primarily among those with classic CAH, necessitating optimized hormonal therapy for conception. Monitoring optimal disease control during pregnancy poses challenges due to hormonal fluctuations. Men with CAH often experience hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism and complications like testicular adrenal rest tissue, impacting fertility. Regular monitoring and intensified glucocorticoid therapy may restore spermatogenesis. Genetic counselling is vital to comprehend transmission risks and prenatal implications.

Pyle-Eilola","doi":"10.1111/cen.15149","DOIUrl":"10.1111/cen.15149","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;Short stature, defined as a height of less than the 2.3rd percentile or 2 standard deviations below the mean for age and sex, is a common indication for referral to paediatric endocrinology clinics [&lt;span&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;]. In addition to the social implications of height, short stature with poor growth may be an indication of underlying systemic illness [&lt;span&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Though the estimated prevalence of growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is approximately 1:4000–10,000, the ultimate aim of a short stature evaluation in children who are growing below their genetic potential is to exclude this rare entity [&lt;span&gt;3&lt;/span&gt;]. An integral part of patient evaluation, growth hormone provocative tests are widely used in clinical practice worldwide during short stature workup to diagnose GHD [&lt;span&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The medical literature is replete with publications that address the male predominance of growth hormone use both in non-GHD and GHD cases [&lt;span&gt;5&lt;/span&gt;]. Various biases which contribute to this historically published male predominance are well documented. These include &lt;i&gt;societal&lt;/i&gt; factors, since short stature in males is perceived as more concerning than in females; &lt;i&gt;familial&lt;/i&gt; factors, as parents are often more concerned about the height of their sons than that of their daughters; and &lt;i&gt;provider&lt;/i&gt; factors, as more boys than girls are referred for concerns about short stature [&lt;span&gt;6, 7&lt;/span&gt;]. Given these biases, more boys than girls receive growth hormone provocative testing and are ultimately diagnosed with GHD [&lt;span&gt;8&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The aforementioned biases undoubtedly prevent accurate assessment of the relative frequencies of paediatric GHD in males and females. If these biases are minimized, it is possible that the true frequencies of paediatric GHD are equal in males and females. This is also taking into account that although there may be certain rare pathologic conditions such as X-linked hypopituitarism, which could result in males with GHD when this and similar conditions are taken collectively, there still should not be a significant sex difference in GHD cases [&lt;span&gt;9&lt;/span&gt;]. A closer look into sub-classifications of GHD utilized in clinical practice may offer an opportunity for evaluation of the true sex frequencies. These sub-classification frameworks may include (i) GHD severity based on peak growth hormone levels, (ii) the presence or absence of abnormal pituitary gland magnetic resonance imaging findings traditionally associated with a diagnosis of severe GHD such as the hypoplastic pituitary gland and (iii) the presence of GHD in the context of multiple pituitary hormonal deficiencies [&lt;span&gt;10&lt;/span&gt;]. It should also be noted that although peak growth hormone levels are used as a surrogate for GHD severity, there is no association between this and with abnormalities such as the ectopic pituitary gland on pituitary magnetic resonance imaging [&lt;span&gt;11&lt;/span&gt;].

AVS is a technically challenging procedure usually undertaken by interventional radiologists at tertiary centres. However, there are numerous variations in AVS protocols relating to patient preparation, sampling techniques and interpretation which may impact the success of AVS and patient care. To reduce practice variations, improve the success rates of AVS and optimise patient outcomes, we established an Australian and New Zealand AVS Working Group and developed evidence-based expert consensus recommendations for the preparation, performance and interpretation of AVS. These recommendations can be used by all healthcare professionals in a multidisciplinary team who look after the diagnosis and management of PA.</p>","PeriodicalId":10346,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Endocrinology","volume":"102 1","pages":"31-43"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/cen.15139","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142364641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such children are also at increased risk of the metabolic syndrome during adolescence and young adulthood.</p><p><strong>Aim: </strong>This literature review focuses on the role of the prenatal environment in programming pubertal onset, and the impact of prenatal metabolic stressors on the declining average age of puberty.</p><p><strong>Method: </strong>A review of all relevant literature was conducted in PubMed by the authors.</p><p><strong>Outcome: </strong>The mechanism for this appears to be mediated through metabolic signals, such as leptin and insulin, on the kisspeptin-neuronal nitric oxide-gonadotropin releasing hormone (KiNG) axis. Exposed children have an elevated risk of childhood obesity and display a phenotype of hyperinsunlinaemia and hyperleptinaemia. These metabolic changes permit an earlier attainment of the nutritional \"threshold\" for puberty. Unfortunately, this cycle may be amplified across subsequent generations, however early intervention may help \"rescue\" progression of this programming.</p>","PeriodicalId":10346,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Endocrinology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142364643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
