Flashcard 169: Why can hypogonadism or genetic disorders that cause abnormal sexual development lead to cryptorchidism?
_____
Answer: Androgens affect testicular descent
Extra: Testicular descent occurs in two phases:
1. Transabdominal phase: Controlled by Insulin-like peptide 3 (Insl3) and MIS.
2. Inguinoscrotal phase: Controlled by androgens.
Therefore, hypogonadism (low androgens) impairs the second phase, leading to cryptorchidism.
