Abstract
Among 43 female patients aged 17-46 years, most with severe oligophrenia, there were 4 with primary hypogonadism (olfactory-genital dysplasia, Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome and lastly a Kanner syndrome). The incidence of genital underdevelopment is assumed to be higher among mentally retarded female patients. In cases of hypogonadism and hypogenitalism a search should always be made for possible mental and neurological disorders.
