Abstract		Male hypogonadism has been established as one of the commonest and frequently overlooked endocrine disorders. It can significantly worsen quality of life and affected individuals and affects multiple organ systems. In the present article we discuss the case of a 38-years old male, in whom we confirmed the clinical and laboratory features of (hypogonadotropic) hypogonadism, as well as hyperprolactinemia and pituitary macroadenoma. After therapy with bromocriptine and testosterone substitution, the disturbing symptoms subsided, serum testosterone and prolactin values fell within the normal range. We should consider the possibility of hypogonadism in the presence of charasteristic, albeit nonspecific symptoms and signs.
Summary		Moški hipogonadizem je eno najpogostejših in praviloma spregledanih endokrinih obolenj, ki pomembno vpliva na kakovost življenja in številne organske sisteme. Predstavljamo primer 38-letnega moškega, pri katerem smo ugotavljali klinične in laboratorijske simptome in znake (hipogonadotropnega) hipogonadizma, ob tem pa tudi hiperprolaktinemijo in makroadenom hipofize. Po uvedbi zdravljenja z bromokriptinom in nadomeščanju testosterona so izrazito moteči simptomi izzveneli, serumski testosteron in prolaktin sta v normalnem območju. Na hipogonadizem moramo pomisliti ob značilnih, čeprav pogosto nespecifičnih, simptomih in znakih.
