The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate three doses of the drug leflutrozole on improvement of semen quality in men with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, a condition that affects hormone levels and fertility. It will also study the safety of leflutrozole. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does leflutrozole improve semen quality? * What medical problems do participants experience when taking leflutrozole? Researchers will compare leflutrozole to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug). Participants will: * Take leflutrozole or a placebo orally once a week for 16 weeks. * Visit the clinic every 4 weeks for checkups and tests. * Provide semen samples to measure changes in semen quality. * Have their blood tested to measure hormone levels and ensure safety. * Be monitored for any side effects.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of opioid antagonists on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis in subjects with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH).
The goal of this study is to develop novel treatments for patients with a condition called hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) through the use of exogenous kisspeptin.
The goal of this study is to learn more about the genes that control puberty and reproduction in humans.
The goal of this study is to see whether kisspeptin, a naturally occurring hormone, can stimulate the release of other reproductive hormones in men and women with idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH). The investigators are also examining whether kisspeptin can help women release eggs from their ovaries. Kisspeptin will be administered SC for two weeks in a pulsatile fashion. Ultrasound monitoring of ovarian follicular growth (for women) and frequent blood sampling (every 10 minutes for up to 70 minutes) will be performed to assess the physiologic response to kisspeptin over time.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about reproductive hormones and if they change in response to 5-days eating an individualized, standardized diet at two levels: energy balance and low energy intake.
The purpose of this study is to to build a registry of women with early estrogen loss due to Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea (FHA) to understand the prevalence, racial and ethnic diversity of this condition.
The goal of this observational study is to compare endometrial stripe thickness in adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients with a uterus on estrogen replacement therapy using oral progesterone versus the etonogstrel implant for endometrial protection. The main questions it aims to answer are: Aim 1: Characterize the mean endometrial thickness in AYA on estrogen hormone replacement therapy before initiation of progesterone therapy Aim 2: Characterize the mean changes and variability in endometrial thickness in AYA treated for 6 months with either the etonogestrel implant or continuous oral progesterone Aim 3: Assess satisfaction, side effects, bleeding patterns, any progesterone modifications, and adherence in AYA treated for 6 months with either etonogestrel implant or continuous progesterone Participants will be asked to: * Get two pelvic ultrasounds * Fill out two surveys * Continue their current hormone replacement therapy * Initiate one of two progesterone therapies (prometrium 100mg daily or Nexplanon) Researchers will compare the change in endometrial thickness after 6 months of progesterone use to see if there is a significant difference in the mean change between the prometrium and Nexplanon groups.
The goal of this study is to see whether kisspeptin, a naturally occurring hormone, can stimulate the release of other reproductive hormones in women with hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA). The investigators are also examining whether kisspeptin can help women release eggs from their ovaries. Kisspeptin will be administered subcutaneously (SC) for two weeks in a pulsatile fashion. Ultrasound monitoring of ovarian follicular growth and frequent blood sampling (every 10 minutes for up to two hours) will be performed to assess the physiologic response to kisspeptin over time.
Background: - During puberty, children begin to develop into adults. Problems with the hormones released during puberty can affect the reproductive system. Some people have low hormone levels that severely delay or prevent puberty. Others start puberty abnormally early. Other people may have a normal puberty but develop reproductive disorders later in life. Researchers want to study people with reproductive disorders to learn more about how these disorders may be inherited. Objectives: - To learn how reproductive system disorders may be inherited. Eligibility: * People with one of the following problems: * Abnormally early puberty * Abnormally late or no puberty * Normal puberty with hormonal problems that develop later in life * People who have not yet had puberty but have symptoms that indicate low hormone levels. Design: * Participants will provide a blood sample for testing. They will complete a questionnaire about their symptoms. They will also have a scratch-and-sniff test to study any problems with their ability to smell. * Participant medical records will be reviewed. Participants will also provide a family medical history. * Family members of those in the study may be invited to participate. * Treatment will not be provided as part of this study.
