unreferenced date November 2009 Testicular atrophy is a medical condition in which the male reproductive organ anatomy organ s the testes , which in humans are located in the scrotum diminish in size and may be accompanied by loss of function. This does not refer to temporary changes, such as those brought on by cold. Some medications can cause testicular atrophy. Anabolic Androgenic Steroids AAS can cause testicular atrophy by reducing the amount of luteinizing hormone LH produced by the pituitary gland. LH stimulates the testicles to produce testosterone. Testicular atrophy caused by steroid use can be prevented by taking hCG, a drug which mimics the effect of LH. However, hCG will simply address the symptoms. Endogenious levels of anabolic androgenic steroids will remain the cause, and testicular atrophy will continue until the male body regains homeostasis. It is unclear how long hCG can be administered to a male on anabolic androgenic steroids before desensitization occurs.

Unreferenced date February 2011 Infobox disease Name Cerebral degeneration ICD9 ICD9 331.9 Cerebral atrophy is a common feature of many of the diseases that affect the brain . Atrophy of any tissue means loss of cells. In brain tissue, atrophy describes a loss of neuron s and the connections between them. Atrophy can be generalized, which means that all of the brain has shrunk or it can be focal, affecting only a limited area of the brain and resulting in a decrease of the functions that area of the brain controls. If the cerebral hemispheres the two lobes of the brain that form the cerebrum are affected, conscious thought and voluntary processes may be impaired. Associated diseases and disorders The pattern and rate of progression of cerebral atrophy depends on the disease involved. Diseases that cause cerebral atrophy include age stroke and traumatic brain injury Depression mood Major depressive disorder Alzheimer s disease , Pick s disease , senile dementia , Frontotemporal dementia fronto temporal dementia , and vascular dementia cerebral palsy , in which lesions damaged areas may impair motor coordination Huntington s disease , and other genetic disorders that cause build up of toxic levels of proteins in neurons leukodystrophies, such as Krabbe disease , which destroy the myelin sheath that protects axon s mitochondrial encephalomyopathies, such as Kearns Sayre syndrome , which interfere with the basic functions of neurons multiple sclerosis , which causes inflammation, myelin damage, and lesions in cerebral tissue infectious diseases , such as encephalitis , neurosyphilis , and AIDS , in which an infectious agent or the inflammatory reaction to it destroys neurons and their axons epilepsy , in which lesions cause abnormal electrochemical discharges that result in seizures ... diseases that cause cerebral atrophy are associated with dementia, seizure s, and a group of language ... system DEFAULTSORT Cerebral Atrophy Category Gross pathology de Hirnatrophie ta ... more details
