Hypogonadism is a condition where there is decreased or no production of hormones by the sex glands.  These sex glands are testes in men and ovaries in women.

Though Sildenafil citrate can help with ED related to hypogonadism a detailed physiological examination might be requested. In some cases the physician might request a complete hormonal test.  Either way Sildenafil citrate will be eventually prescribed for the condition.  You can order the medication from an online pharmacy in complete confidentiality.

Causes of hypogonadism:  The causes can be primary or central.  Primary causes are those by which the ovaries and testes do not function properly by themselves.  Some of these primary causes include autoimmune disorders, chronic liver disease, renal disease, genetic and development disorders, etc.  Some of the genetic disorders like Turner syndrome can be a primary cause for hypogonadism.

Central hypogonadism is caused by improper functioning of the brain centers which control the gonads (testes and ovaries).  The brain centers are the hypothalamus and pituitary glands.  Some common central causes are bleeding, infection, hemochromatosis, nutritional deficiencies, and genetic issues.

One of the main complications of hypogonadism is sexual dysfunction.  In fact, it is a disorder of the sex glands, i.e., testes in men that produce the testosterone hormone.  It is the testosterone hormone that helps in the reproductive system of man.  Any failure or insufficient production of this hormone caused by hypogonadism can result in less sexual drive, weakness, infertility, and ultimately impotence.  Though the decline in the testosterone level is normal with aging, hypogonadism can cause a steep decline even at earlier ages.
