Idiopathic Non-hormonal Clitoromegaly in a Young Female: A Case Report

Clitoromegaly may be either congenital or acquired and is primarily caused by elevated androgen levels during foetal development, childhood, or puberty. We describe an unusual case of clitoromegaly in a young female who presented with genital pruritus, without any other significant clinical findings. Clitoromegaly is a rare condition, and in this case, the diagnosis was established following thorough physical examination, radiological imaging, and comprehensive laboratory investigations. The patient was diagnosed with acquired, idiopathic, non-hormonal clitoromegaly- an uncommon condition. This diagnosis can only be made after systematically ruling out all other potential causes.

Abstract

Clitoromegaly may be either congenital or acquired and is primarily caused by elevated androgen levels during foetal development, childhood, or puberty. We describe an unusual case of clitoromegaly in a young female who presented with genital pruritus, without any other significant clinical findings. Clitoromegaly is a rare condition, and in this case, the diagnosis was established following thorough physical examination, radiological imaging, and comprehensive laboratory investigations. The patient was diagnosed with acquired, idiopathic, non-hormonal clitoromegaly- an uncommon condition. This diagnosis can only be made after systematically ruling out all other potential causes.
