'''AMAB Hypogonadism '''is an [[intersex]] variation - more specifically, a form of [[hypogonadism]] - leading to a reduction in the output of [[wolffian]] [[sex]] hormones in [[Assigned Gender|AMAB]] or otherwise [[CTM]] individuals due to decreased functionality of the testes. Hypogonadism can be primary, meaning it's caused by a problem with the testicles, or it can be secondary hypogonadism, meaning it's caused by a problem with the signals sent from the brain to the testicles.<ref>https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/000390.htm</ref> |
