Usage: | The human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) stimulation test is a reliable dynamic test for the evaluation of testicular secretion & Leydig cell function in children with micropenis. Post stimulation, testosterone levels rise to twice that of basal levels. A normal response to HCG is seen in patients with unilateral or bilateral undescended testes, while lack of response is compatible with anorchia or Leydig cell agenesis. | ||||||
