==History and Symptoms==
Symptom of 21-hydroxylase deficiency ranges from severe to mild or asymptomatic forms, depending on the degree of 21-hydroxylase enzyme deficiency. There are three main clinical phenotypes: classic salt-wasting, classic non-salt-wasting (simple virilizing), and non-classic (late-onset):<ref name="pmid11148508">{{cite journal| author=Eugster EA, Dimeglio LA, Wright JC, Freidenberg GR, Seshadri R, Pescovitz OH| title=Height outcome in congenital adrenal hyperplasia caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency: a meta-analysis. | journal=J Pediatr | year= 2001 | volume= 138 | issue= 1 | pages= 26-32 | pmid=11148508 | doi=10.1067/mpd.2001.110527 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=11148508  }}</ref><ref name="pmid19100266">{{cite journal| author=Mathews GA, Fane BA, Conway GS, Brook CG, Hines M| title=Personality and congenital adrenal hyperplasia: possible effects of prenatal androgen exposure. | journal=Horm Behav | year= 2009 | volume= 55 | issue= 2 | pages= 285-91 | pmid=19100266 | doi=10.1016/j.yhbeh.2008.11.007 | pmc=3296092 | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=19100266  }}</ref><ref name="pmid3491959">{{cite journal| author=Mulaikal RM, Migeon CJ, Rock JA| title=Fertility rates in female patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. | journal=N Engl J Med | year= 1987 | volume= 316 | issue= 4 | pages= 178-82 | pmid=3491959 | doi=10.1056/NEJM198701223160402 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=3491959  }}</ref><ref name="pmid12665708">{{cite journal| author=Stikkelbroeck NM, Hermus AR, Braat DD, Otten BJ| title=Fertility in women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. | journal=Obstet Gynecol Surv | year= 2003 | volume= 58 | issue= 4 | pages= 275-84 | pmid=12665708 | doi=10.1097/01.OGX.0000062966.93819.5B | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=12665708  }}</ref><ref name="pmid18420648">{{cite journal| author=Hagenfeldt K, Janson PO, Holmdahl G, Falhammar H, Filipsson H, Frisén L et al.| title=Fertility and pregnancy outcome in women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. | journal=Hum Reprod | year= 2008 | volume= 23 | issue= 7 | pages= 1607-13 | pmid=18420648 | doi=10.1093/humrep/den118 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=18420648  }}</ref><ref name="pmid12835972">{{cite journal| author=Stikkelbroeck NM, Suliman HM, Otten BJ, Hermus AR, Blickman JG, Jager GJ| title=Testicular adrenal rest tumours in postpubertal males with congenital adrenal hyperplasia: sonographic and MR features. | journal=Eur Radiol | year= 2003 | volume= 13 | issue= 7 | pages= 1597-603 | pmid=12835972 | doi=10.1007/s00330-002-1786-3 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=12835972  }}</ref><ref name="pmid15198296">{{cite journal| author=Stikkelbroeck NM, Hermus AR, Suliman HM, Jager GJ, Otten BJ| title=Asymptomatic testicular adrenal rest tumours in adolescent and adult males with congenital adrenal hyperplasia: basal and follow-up investigation after 2.6 years. | journal=J Pediatr Endocrinol Metab | year= 2004 | volume= 17 | issue= 4 | pages= 645-53 | pmid=15198296 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=15198296  }}</ref><ref name="pmid128359722">{{cite journal| author=Stikkelbroeck NM, Suliman HM, Otten BJ, Hermus AR, Blickman JG, Jager GJ| title=Testicular adrenal rest tumours in postpubertal males with congenital adrenal hyperplasia: sonographic and MR features. | journal=Eur Radiol | year= 2003 | volume= 13 | issue= 7 | pages= 1597-603 | pmid=12835972 | doi=10.1007/s00330-002-1786-3 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=12835972  }}</ref><ref name="pmid18029470">{{cite journal| author=Nordenskjöld A, Holmdahl G, Frisén L, Falhammar H, Filipsson H, Thorén M et al.| title=Type of mutation and surgical procedure affect long-term quality of life for women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia. | journal=J Clin Endocrinol Metab | year= 2008 | volume= 93 | issue= 2 | pages= 380-6 | pmid=18029470 | doi=10.1210/jc.2007-0556 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=18029470  }}</ref><ref name="pmid15554889">{{cite journal |vauthors=van der Kamp HJ, Wit JM |title=Neonatal screening for congenital adrenal hyperplasia |journal=Eur.

Overview

Classic CAH salt-wasting CAH Baby girls with ambiguous genitalia with life-threatening cases of vomiting, weight loss and dehydration in a baby’s first few weeks of life or simple virilizing CAH but girls will have ambiguous genitalia. baby boys may have enlarged penises. nonclassic or late onset CAH Patients don't show any signs in early life but show  premature pubarche, acne, hirsutism.

History and Symptoms

Symptom of 21-hydroxylase deficiency ranges from severe to mild or asymptomatic forms, depending on the degree of 21-hydroxylase enzyme deficiency. There are three main clinical phenotypes: classic salt-wasting, classic non-salt-wasting (simple virilizing), and non-classic (late-onset):[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

21-OH deficiency type Common symptoms Less common symptoms
Infancy Female Male Female Male
Classic type

In salt wasting type

  • Vomiting
  • Weight loss
  • Dehydration in a baby’s first few weeks of life
  • Ambiguous genitalia
  • Clitoral enlargement
  • labial fusion
  • Deep voice
  • Greater aggressive tendencies than unaffected healthy women
  • Early puberty
  • Adult short stature
  • Male-typical sexual behavior in girls and cross-gender role behavior
  • Decreased fertility due to hyperandrogenemia and anovulatory cycles (fertility rate depends the enzyme amount).
  • Normal appearing at birth(mostly)
  • Hyperpigmentation of the scrotum
  • Enlarged phallus
  • Deep voice
  • Muscle growth
  • Early virilization at two to four years of age with (pubic hair, growth spurt, adult body odor).
  • Cognitive function disturbance such as IQ impairment
  • Male-typical cognitive pattern (better performance on spatial tasks, worse performance on verbal tasks)
  • Testicular masses due to testicular adrenal rest tumors
  • Infertility due to seminiferous tubule obstruction, gonadal dysfunction as a result of testicular adrenal rest tumors, these tumors caused by high level of ACTH
Non-classic type
  • No symptoms
  • Premature pubarche.
  • Advance bone age
  • Medication resistant cystic acne
  • Accelerated growth with tall stature as a child in prepubertal period
  • Hirsutism
  • Oligomenorrhea
  • Acne
  • Hirsutism, acne and menstrual irregularity in young women
  • Early pubarche or sexual precocity in school age children
  • Mild subfertility due to hyperandrogenemia and anovulatory cycles (fertility rate depends the enzyme amount).
  • No symptoms
  • Premature pubarche.
  • Advance bone age
  • Medication resistant cystic acne
  • Accelerated growth with tall stature as a child
  • Clitoromegaly
  • Infertility
  • Alopecia
  • Primary amenorrhea
