BACKGROUND: Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) is a rare congenital or acquired genetic disorder caused by gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) deficiency. IHH patients are divided into two major groups, hyposmic or anosmic IHH (Kallmann syndrome) and normosmic IHH (nIHH), according to whether their sense of smell is intact.
