Abstract
In the absence of the testes, massive doses of crystalline human chorionic gonadotrophin cause no increase in the adrenal wt., and do not restore secondary sex characteristics. Only a moderate increase in testis wt. occurs even with very large doses. Restoration of spermatogenesis did not occur.Keywords
