Abstract
A clinical and anthropometric study of 96 men who had suffered cryptorchidism in childhood was conducted. During the examination, attention was paid to physical development, distribution of subcutaneous fat, amount of body hair, genitalia, and body proportions. The type of pubic hair was determined visually. Regression scales were used to assess individual physical development. The study found that most of them have symptoms of hypogonadism: infertility, impotence, sparse body hair, insufficient development of secondary sex characteristics, eunuchoid habitus.
