Abstract
Objective: The human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) stimulation test is widely used to assess testicular steroidogenesis. This test evaluates Leydig cell function and helps to evaluate testosterone synthesis in testicular enzyme defects, hypogonadism, 46,XY sex-ual development disorders (DSD), and micropenis. This study will compare testosterone responses to a single dose of 5000 IU/m2 and three consecutive days of 1500 IU/m(2) hCG regimens.
