“…M e a n testicular volume of pure Japanese males (22.0 ml) was less than that of pure Caucasians (39.5 m l ) or .

Follow up of 38 boys with unilateral hypogonadism due to unilateral (35 boys) or bilateral (3 boys) cryptorchidism revealed that the normal testicle developed compensatory hypertrophy even before puberty. The hypertrophic testicle was in most instances larger than the normal range. The hypertrophy seems to be of functional importance as linear growth, skeletal maturation, sexual development, including penile size, and urinary 17-KS and gonadotropin excretion were normal in all the boys with unilateral hypogonadism or anorchia and contralateral testicular hypertrophy.

“…The following parameters were evaluated and followed throughout the whole study: libido, sexual potency, and frequency of sexual intercourse; hair distribution (head, beard, chest, axilla, pubes) and presence of acne or other dermatological signs: body weight, blood pressure, prostatic size and consistency, and testicular volume (by orchidometer, Schonfeld 1943). A toxicity screen was done including plasma electrophoresis, transaminases (SGOT, SGPT).…”

The effect of long-term testosterone administration on male reproductive function has been investigated in seven healthy young men age 20 to 27 years. Testosterone oenanthate (TOe) was administered in doses of 250 mg per week for 21 weeks. No toxic side-effects were observed. Libido, sexual potency, frequency of sexual intercourse and body hair development generally remained unaffected, but there was a reversible mean weight gain of 3.6 kg during TOe administration. Seminal fluid parameters and radioimmunoassayable serum FSH, LH, testosterone, and androstenedione levels were monitored before, during, and after TOe administration. The serum testosterone rose approximately by a factor of two, while the serum FSH and LH were rapidly suppressed after the initiation of the TOe therapy.The mean sperm concentration fell to values below three million spermatozoa per ml, and changes in sperm motility, the percentage of normal sperm morphology, and seminal fructose concentrations generally paralleled those of the mean sperm concentrations. In contrast, the mean seminal fluid volume and serum androstenedione levels did not change significantly durPresent address:
