[i][b][u]Does [big]ANYONE ELSE[/big] have delayed puberty? [/u][/b][/i]
I finally received a diagnosis for my lack of development. While in a children's hospital, for a different reason, I was told the name of my pubertal dysfunction. I have KALLMANN SYNDROME,a form of Hypogonadatropic Hypogonadism
KS delays, or prevents puberty, and diminishes, or prevents a sense of smell. This is called ANOSMIA. In the brain, the nasal bulb doesn't develop completely, or at all.

The pituitary gland is wa-a-ay inside the brain, almost at the centre. How on [i]earth[/i] is it even possible to injure it? One would have to drive a spike through the soft tissue of the mandible, just behind the tongue, through the soft pallet of the maxilla, just to get close to the pituitary. It would be difficult to stay alive after such an injury. Are you alright?
