A case of acquired hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (AHH) associated with bipolar disorder in a middleaged man is presented and the unresolved and perplexing management issues are discussed. The area of care in endocrinology is immensely neglected and currently understudied. We hope to attract attention, focused care and perhaps research to look into the etiologic approach for managing such cases with this considerable amount of complexity, which endocrinologists and psychiatrists commonly encounter in their practice.
