| 520 | |a Thalassaemic syndromes are among the most common haemoglobinopathies and are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Because of the various treatments, a secondary endocrinopathy due to iron overload-haemosiderosis-can occur, causing hypopituitarism leading to hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) and infertility. We present a case of secondary amenorrhoea in a patient with beta-thalassaemia and a history of multiple therapies in her adolescence, such as multiple transfusions, chemotherapy, and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, who presented with HH and premature ovarian insufficiency. | ||
