Quantitative gonadotropin responses to luteinizing hormone‐releasing hormone (LH‐RH) and testicular responses to human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) have not been reported in patients with the Silver‐Russell syndrome (SRS). We evaluated hypothalamic‐pituitary gonadal functions in a 12‐year‐old boy with SRS, who showed hypergonadotropic hypogonadism.
