Overview
Laboratory findings are crucial in the diagnosis of adiposogenital dystrophy. Pituitary hormones are low and there may be downstream hormonal deficiencies as well.
Laboratory findings
Laboratory findings include[1]:
- Pituitary hormones including prolactin, adrenocorticotropic hormone, luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and growth hormone
- Serum cortisol
- Serum estrogen
- Testosterone
- Thyroid hormones
- Sodium levels may be elevated due to diabetes insipidus
- Blood osmolality may be high and urine osmolality may be low due to diabetes insipidus
- Immunologic markers may also be used
