A question about hypopituitarism and hypogonadism, low LH/FSH and testosterone levels?
In men, the combination of low LH and FSH in combination with a low testosterone confirms LH FSH deficiency hypopituitarism , a high testosterone would indicate a source elsewhere in the body such as a testosterone secreting tumor . Does that mean that LH FSH deficiency or hypopituitarism causes low testosterone levels? If not, what causes the low testosterone levels, and must it be present in addition to low LHFSH to confirm hypopituitarism? What is the difference between hypopituitarism and hypogonadism? Does one have to have hypogonadism to have low testosterone levels, or could hypopituitarism be sufficient? Sorry if my questions are a little unclear. And please, simple explanations, I am not a doctor.

Hypopituitarism and infertility.?
I'm 18, male and have a medical condition called hypopituitarism. This basically means my pituitary gland is deficient and therefore certain systems are messed up, such as the endocrine and reproductive ones. I know I'm young but I feel sick at the thought of not being able to have children in the future due to infertility. I was just wondering if there are any medications treatments that are aimed at treating such problems and the names of them so that I could do some research. Thanks
