Abstract:The aetiology of Klinefelter's Syndrome is not known. The causative factor(s) must explain the hypogonadism, low androgen levels, the disordered carbohydrate metabolism and the commonly associated psychiatric conditions. A biotin deficient/dependent state can account for the above. A biotin deficient Klinefelter's Syndrome patients with the above is described. The possible role of biotin in the primary, secondary and tertiary prevention of Klinefelter's Syndrome needs further research.
Keywords:Klinefelter's Syndrome  hypogonadism  low androgens  abnormal carbohydrate metabolism  psychiatric symptoms and biotin deficiency/dependency and relevance to primary, secondary and tertiary prevention
