Health Care Professional Part

Different protocols for the induction of male puberty exist and the choice of therapy depends on the underlying condition, personal experience, patient preference, as well as local availability of the drug. The purpose of this questionnaire is to understand the variation in practice and the availability of the different preparations in your country. The responses will be used to inform the development of guidelines on pubertal induction, an initiative that is being led by Endo-ERN with close collaboration with ESPE and ESE.
