LH resistance due to complete LH receptor inactivation – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/232167901

This is a rare autosomal recessive genetic and endocrine syndrome, characterised by an inability of the body to respond to luteinizing hormone (LH), a gonadotropin which is normally responsible for signalling Leydig cells of the testicles to produce testos. This diagnosis is due to complete LH receptor inactivation.
