Prevalence of adrenal rest tumors and course of gonadal dysfunction in a clinical sample of men with congenital adrenal hyperplasia: a longitudinal analysis over 10 years
T levels below the normal range are frequent in men with 21OHD, regardless of TART, but change little over time. Besides adrenal androgen control gonadal axis suppression from supraphysiological glucocorticoid dosages needs to be considered. While our results do not endorse regular screening for alterations in TART status among adults, Sertoli cell function should be monitored in men with large TART.
