Difference between Anorexia nervosa and Hypogonadism

Anorexia nervosa vs. Hypogonadism

Anorexia nervosa, often referred to simply as anorexia, is an eating disorder characterized by low weight, fear of gaining weight, and a strong desire to be thin, resulting in food restriction. Hypogonadism means diminished functional activity of the gonads—the testes or the ovaries —that may result in diminished sex hormone biosynthesis.

Similarities between Anorexia nervosa and Hypogonadism

Anorexia nervosa and Hypogonadism have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Anabolic steroid, Gonadotropin-releasing hormone, Hypothalamus, Infertility, Luteinizing hormone, Polycystic ovary syndrome.

Anabolic steroid

Anabolic steroids, also known more properly as anabolic–androgenic steroids (AAS), are steroidal androgens that include natural androgens like testosterone as well as synthetic androgens that are structurally related and have similar effects to testosterone.
