Common Features of Women with Psychogenic Hypothalamic Amenorrhea • Single marital status • Obsessive-compulsive habits • History of significant stressful life events • History of sexual abuse • History of prior irregular menstrual cycles • Normal or thin habitus • Tendency to use sedatives or hypnotic drugs • Involved in professional occupations • High intelligence
Associated Neuroendocrine Abnormalities in Hypothalamic Amenorrhea. • Increased daytime cortisol secretion • Increased amplitude and duration of nocturnal melatonin secretion • Increased nocturnal secretion of GH • Elevated CRH levels in cerebral spinal fluid • Blunted elevation of PRL, ACTH, and cortisol during the noon meal
Common Features of Anorexia Nervosa Preoccupation with handling of food • Bulimic behavior • Calorie counting • Distortion of body self-image Hyperactivity-Obsessive-compulsive personality • Increased incidence of past sexual abuse • Amenorrhea • Constipation • Coarse, dry skin • Soft, lanugo-type hair • Hypothermia with defective thermoregulation • Mild bradycardia • Cardiac arrhythmias • Hypotension • Hypokalemia secondary to diuretic or laxative abuse • Osteopenia • Increased serum beta-carotene levels • AnemiaLeukopenia • Elevated hepatic enzymes
Neuroendocrine Abnormalities Associated with Anorexia Nervosa • Diminished GnRH-LH pulsatile frequency and amplitude • Low blood LH and FSH levels • Impaired ACTH response to CRH stimulation testing • Resistance to dexamethasone suppression • Increased ACTH levels • Increased 24 hour urinary free cortisol levels • Low prolactin levels • Low TSH levels High reverse T3 and low T3 levels • Elevated GH levels • Decreased IGF-1 levels • Diabetes insipidus
EXERCISE-INDUCED HYPOTHALAMIC AMENORRHEA • Ballet (6-43%) and middle and long distance running (24-26%). The incidence appears to be less frequent in bicycling (12%) and swimming (12%) . • Pulsatility is not disrupted by the stress of exercise but rather LH pulsatility is disrupted because of reduced energy availability . • It is important to emphasize that for so many of these athletes the "female athlete triad" of amenorrhea, osteoporosis, and eating disorders coexist.
Regulation of germ cell migration. A: 4-week embryo. Differentiation of primordial germ cells (PGC) occurs from epiblast-derived cells pressent in the yolk sac near the base of the allantois. PGcs express alkaline phosphatase (AP), Oct4 and c-kit. Stem cell proteins, like fibronectin and laminin, are expressed along the PGC pathway. B: 5-week embryo. PGCs migrate along the dorsal mesentery of the hind gut to the gonadal ridges.
