Familial male precocious puberty

There are a variety of constitutively active mutations in the gene encoding the LH receptor. These variants result in gonadotropin-independent disorders such as testotoxicosis and familial male precocious puberty (FMPP) (91). These disorders are inherited in an autosomal dominant, male-limited pattern (92,93). [Pg.123]
