In presence of androgen gene mutation, leading to androgen insensitivity because of an impaired regulatory mechanism of the gonadotropin–androgen axis, both LH and T in serum may be elevated, leading to a distinctively high value of the LH×T multiplication product, which has been termed as the androgen sensitivity index (ASI). The aim of our present study was to investigate a cohort of young males for impaired ASI. One hundred and seventy-seven nearly healthy post-pu...

Androgen insensitivity leads to a defect of virilization in karyotypic males despite supraphysiologic androgen levels. Because of an impaired regulatory mechanism of the gonadotropin-androgen axis, both LH and T in serum may be elevated, leading to a distinctively high value of the LH×T multiplication product, which has been termed as the androgen sensitivity index (ASI). The aim of our present study was to investigate a cohort of young males with light decrease in penile...
