amenorrhea,usuallyinassociationwithhyperprolactinemia(table1).

FunctionalhypothalamicamenorrheaFunctionalhypothalamicamenorrheaisadisorderthat,bydefinition,excludespathologicdisease.Itischaracterizedbyabnormalhypothalamicgonadotropinreleasinghormone(GnRH)secretion,leadingtodecreasedgonadotropinpulsations,lowornormalserumluteinizinghormone(LH)concentrations,absentLHsurges,absenceofnormalfolliculardevelopment,anovulation,andlowserumconcentrationsofestradiol[3].Serumfolliclestimulatinghormone(FSH)concentrationsareofteninthenormalrange,withahighFSHtoLHratiosimilartothepatterninprepubertalgirls.

Multiplefactorsmaycontributetothepathogenesisoffunctionalhypothalamicamenorrhea,includingeatingdisorders(suchasanorexianervosa),exercise,andstress.Thetermhypothalamicamenorrheaisoftenusedinterchangeablywithfunctionalhypothalamicamenorrhea.Thetopicoffunctionalhypothalamicamenorrheaisdiscussedindetailelsewhere.(See"Etiology,diagnosis,andtreatmentofsecondaryamenorrhea",sectionon'Functionalhypothalamicamenorrhea'and"Amenorrheaandinfertilityassociatedwithexercise"and"Eatingdisorders:Overviewofepidemiology,diagnosis,andcourseofillness".)

CongenitalGnRHdeficiencyAlthoughrare,primaryamenorrheacanbeduetocompletecongenitalGnRHdeficiency.Thissyndromeiscalledidiopathichypogonadotropichypogonadismor,ifitisassociatedwithanosmia,Kallmann'ssyndrome[4].ThesewomentypicallyhaveapulsatileandprepubertallowserumgonadotropinconcentrationsduetotheabsenceofhypothalamicGnRH.CongenitalGnRHdeficiencycanbeinheritedasanautosomaldominant,autosomalrecessive,orXlinkedcondition.However,overtwothirdsofcasesaresporadic.(See"Congenitalgonadotropinreleasinghormonedeficiency(idiopathichypogonadotropichypogonadism)".)

ConstitutionaldelayofpubertyAlthoughconstitutionaldelayofpubertyiscommoninboyswithafamilyhistoryofdelayedpuberty,itisanuncommoncauseofdelayedpubertyorprimaryamenorrheaingirls.Constitutionaldelayischaracterizedbybothdelayedadrenarcheandgonadarche,andisoftendifficulttodistinguishclinicallyfromcongenitalGnRHdeficiency.Patientswithconstitutionaldelaygoontohavecompletelynormalpubertaldevelopment,albeitatalaterage.(See"Diagnosisandtreatmentofdelayedpuberty".)

HyperprolactinemiaHyperprolactinemiaisararecauseofprimaryamenorrheaandanovulation.Thepresentationissimilartohypothalamicamenorrheaexceptfortheadditionalfindingofgalactorrheainmanywomenwithhyperprolactinemia.Prolactinsecretingpituitaryadenomasandcranialtumorscausepituitarystalkcompression.(See"Clinicalmanifestationsandevaluationofhyperprolactinemia".)

Inmostlaboratories,aserumprolactinconcentrationabove15to20ng/mL(15to20mcg/L)isconsideredabnormalinwomenofreproductiveage.Stress,sleep,exercise,intercourse,andmealscanraiseserumprolactinconcentrationstransiently.Thus,werecommendthathighserumprolactinconcentrationsberecordedatleasttwicebeforeamagneticresonanceimaging(MRI)isordered.

OtherManyinfiltrativediseasesandtumorsofthehypothalamusandpituitarycanresultindiminishedGnRHreleaseorgonadotropedestructionandamenorrheatheseincludecraniopharyngioma,germinoma,andLangerhanscellhistiocytosis.Themainindicationsformagneticresonanceimagingareprimaryhypogonadotropichypogonadism,visualfielddefects,headaches,otherevidenceofhypothalamicorpituitarydysfunction,orsuggestiveotherdiseases(suchassarcoidosis).Ironstudiestoruleouthemochromatosisshouldbeperformedifthereisanappropriatefamilyhistoryorifthewomanhasothersuggestivemanifestationssuchasbronzedskin,diabetesmellitus,orotherwiseunexplainedheartorliverdisease.(See"Approachtothepatientwithsuspectedironoverload".)

OvarianetiologiesThemostcommoncauseofprimaryamenorrheaisgonadaldysgenesiscausedbychromosomalabnormalitiesthatresultinprematuredepletionofallovarianoocytesandfollicles.Alesscommonovarianetiologyofprimaryamenorrheaisthepolycysticovarysyndrome.

GonadaldysgenesisInyoungwomenwithprimaryamenorrhea,thesinglemostcommoncauseisprimaryovarianinsufficiencyduetogonadaldysgenesis.ThesewomenhavesignificantlyelevatedFSHlevelsduetothe



absenceofovarianoocytesandfollicles,leadingtoareductioninnegativefeedbackonFSHfromestradiolandinhibinsAandB.ThelargestnumberofpatientswithprimaryamenorrheaandovarianinsufficiencyhaveTurner'ssyndrome(45,X)followedby46,XXgonadaldysgenesisand,rarely,46,XYgonadaldysgenesis.

TurnersyndromeWomenwithTurnersyndromeareusuallymissingallofoneXchromosome(45,Xgonadaldysgenesis)[5].Amenorrheaoccursbecausetheoocytesandfolliclesundergoapoptosisandtheovariesarereplacedwithfibroustissueandcannotproduceestrogenwithoutfollicles.Incontrast,theexternalfemalegenitalia,uterus,andfallopiantubesdevelopnormallyuntilpubertywhenestrogeninducedmaturationfailstooccur.Spontaneouspubertyandmenstruationoccursmorecommonlyinwomenwithamosaickaryotype(45,X/46,XX),butcanoccurinwomenwitha45,Xkaryotype,althoughspontaneouspregnancyisunlikelywitha45,Xkaryotype[6,7].(See"ClinicalmanifestationsanddiagnosisofTurnersyndrome(gonadaldysgenesis)".)

Estrogenandcyclicprogesteronereplacementatpubertywillresultinnormalpubertaldevelopment:pubicandaxillaryhair,breastgrowth,cyclicvaginalbleeding,andgrowthandmaturationoftheuterusandexternalgenitalia.Postmenopausalhormonetherapymaybeprecededbygrowthhormonetherapytogainmaximalheight.Pregnancyispossiblewithoocytedonation.(See"ManagementofTurnersyndrome(gonadaldysgenesis)".)

PartialdeletionsandstructuralrearrangementsoftheXchromosomecanalsoresultinprimaryorsecondaryamenorrheaandtheTurnerphenotype[8].Inaddition,somecasesofgonadaldysgenesisresultfromautosomalrecessiveinheritance(46,XXgonadaldysgenesis)thefewcasesthathavebeendescribedlackthesomaticfeaturesofTurnersyndrome[9].(See"Congenitalcytogeneticabnormalities".)

PolycysticovarysyndromeThemenstrualdisturbancesinwomenwiththepolycysticovarysyndrome(PCOS)classicallyhaveaperipubertalonset.Whilesomewomenmaypresentwithprimaryamenorrhea,typicallythosewhohavehigherandrogenlevelsandaremoreoverweight[10],mosthaveanormalorslightlydelayedmenarchefollowedbyirregularcyclesorsecondaryamenorrhea.Thediagnosiscanbemadeinagirlwithclinicalandbiochemicalevidenceofhyperandrogenisminthepresenceofadvancedpubertaldevelopment(ie,Tannerstage4breastdevelopment)andintheabsenceofotherdisorderscausingamenorrheaandhyperandrogenism[11].ThediagnosisofPCOSisreviewedindetailseparately.(See"Definition,clinicalfeaturesanddifferentialdiagnosisofpolycysticovarysyndromeinadolescents"and"Diagnosisofpolycysticovarysyndromeinadults".)

CongenitalanatomiclesionsoftheuterusandvaginaCongenitalabnormalitiesofthefemalereproductiveorgansaccountforapproximately20percentofcasesofprimaryamenorrhea.Mensescannotoccurwithoutanintactuterus,endometrium,cervix,cervicalos,andvaginalconduit.Pelvicorlowerabdominalpainisacommonpresentingsymptomingirlswithprimaryamenorrheaandanobstructedreproductivetract.Congenitalanomaliesoftheuterusandvaginawillbereviewedbrieflyinthissectionandingreaterdetailelsewhere.(See"Clinicalmanifestationsanddiagnosisofcongenitalanomaliesoftheuterus"and"Diagnosisandmanagementofcongenitalanomaliesofthevagina".)

DIAGNOSTICEVALUATION

OverviewPrimaryamenorrheaisevaluatedmostefficientlybyfocusingonthepresenceorabsenceofbreastdevelopment(amarkerofestrogenactionandthereforefunctionoftheovary),thepresenceorabsenceoftheuterus(asdeterminedbyultrasound,orinmorecomplexcasesbymagneticresonanceimaging)andthefollicle



stimulatinghormone(FSH)level.

Aseriesofsequentialdiagnosticstepshelpwiththepreciseidentificationofacauseofprimaryamenorrhea:

Step1:HistoryAlthoughthereareseveraluniquecausesofprimaryamenorrhea,allcausesofsecondaryamenorrheacanalsocauseprimarydisease(see"Etiology,diagnosis,andtreatmentofsecondaryamenorrhea").Thus,thefollowingquestionsshouldbeaskedofawomanwithprimaryamenorrhea:

Step2:PhysicalexaminationThephysicalexaminationinawomanwithprimaryamenorrheashouldbeginwith:

IfthereisnobreastdevelopmentandtheFSHleveliselevated,theprobablediagnosisisgonadaldysgenesis,andakaryotypeshouldbeobtained.Inthisscenario,a46,XYkaryotypeisassociatedwithahighriskforthedevelopmentofgonadoblastomaanddysgerminomaandsurgicalremovalofthegonadsisnecessary.

Anevaluationofpubertaldevelopment,includingcurrentheight,weight,andarmspan(normalarmspanforadultsiswithin5cmofheight)andanevaluationofthewoman'sgrowthchart.



Step3:BasiclaboratorytestingThelaboratoryevaluationofawomanwithprimaryamenorrheadependsuponthefindingsonphysicalexamination,inparticular,whethermllerianstructuresarepresentorabsent.Thus,thesinglemostimportantstepintheevaluationistodeterminebyphysicalexaminationorultrasonographywhetherthereareanyanatomicabnormalitiesofthevagina,cervix,oruterus.

Ifanormalvaginaoruterusisnotobviouslypresentonphysicalexamination,pelvicultrasonographyshouldbeperformedtoconfirmthepresenceorabsenceofovaries,uterus,andcervix.Inaddition,ultrasonographycanbeusefultolookforvaginalorcervicaloutletobstructioninpatientswithcyclicpain.

UterusabsentForthosewithabsenceoftheuterus,furtherevaluationshouldincludeakaryotypeandmeasurementofserumtestosterone.Thesetestsshouldthenallowthecliniciantodistinguishbetweenabnormalmlleriandevelopment(46,XXkaryotypewithnormalfemaleserumtestosteroneconcentrations)andandrogeninsensitivitysyndrome(46,XYkaryotypeandnormalmaleserumtestosteroneconcentrations).Patientswith5alphareductasedeficiencyalsohavea46,XYkaryotypeandnormalmaleserumtestosteroneconcentrationsbut,incontrasttotheandrogeninsensitivitysyndrome,whichisassociatedwithafemalephenotype,thesepatientsundergostrikingvirilizationatthetimeofpuberty(normaldevelopmentofsecondarysexualhair,musclemass,anddeepeningofthevoice).

UteruspresentForpatientswithnormalmllerianstructuresandnoevidenceofanimperforatehymen,vaginalseptum,orcongenitalabsenceofthevagina,anendocrineevaluationshouldbeperformed.ThisincludesmeasurementofserumbetahumanchorionicgonadotropintoexcludepregnancyandofserumFSH,andperhapsotherhormones.

Anassessmentofbreastdevelopment(eg,byTannerstaging)(table3andfigure4).(See"Normalpuberty".)

Acarefulgenitalexaminationshouldbeperformedforclitoralsize,pubertalhairdevelopment,intactnessofthehymen,depthofthevagina,andpresenceofacervix,uterus,andovaries.Ifthevaginacannotbepenetratedwithafinger,rectalexaminationmayallowevaluationoftheinternalorgans.Pelvicultrasoundisalsousefultodeterminethepresenceorabsenceofmllerianstructures.
