A 19-year-old phenotypic female with gonadal agenesis and XY karyotype underwent an endocrinologic study. She lacked secondary sexual characteristics and there was posterior labial fusion, absence of vagina, and no gonadal or gonadal duct tissues present at laparotomy. Elevated levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) responded well to intravenous injection of LH-releasing hormone (LH-RH) but did not respond to clomiphene citrate. Both OH and FSH levels were suppressed by administration of testosterone or estrogen. Low serum concentration of testosterone did not respond to human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) injection. Dihydrotestosterone binding by cultured skin fibroblast revealed the existence of a binding component with low capacity and high affinity. This is the first report of a patient with XY gonadal agenesis in whom androgen receptors in the target cells are demonstrated.
