Introduction: Up to 10% of patients with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) may undergo reversal of hypogonadotropism and some of them even attain normal sperm count in adulthood. However, clinical and molecular genetic features of these patients and the triggers leading to reversal of HH are not well understood. We studied whether Finnish reversal variants displayed a common phenotypic or genotypic feature that would predict the clinical course of HH.<p class="...
