FEATURES OF REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT IN GIRLS WITH CONGENITAL ADRENAL CORTEX DYSFUNCTION

Abstract

Congenital adrenal cortex dysfunction (CACD) is a chronic endocrine disorder associated with impaired synthesis of glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, and androgens in the body. This condition, especially in girls, leads to various pathological changes in the development of the reproductive system. The disease can be diagnosed in infancy or childhood, but in some cases, clinical symptoms may intensify or appear for the first time during reproductive age.
