The first medical paper to use the name Kallmann syndrome was published in 1944 in the unfortunately titled magazine "American Journal of Mental Deficiency".
It was first thought that Kallmann Syndrome was linked to a marked level of mental incompetence. This is NOT the case.
The fact that the few people in the first paper had Kallmann syndrome and mental problems was a coincidence and not a direct result of having Kallmann syndrome.
There is no link between intelligence, mental awareness and having Kallmann syndrome.
A web blog about my life and a rare hormonal condition called Kallmann syndrome. It is a condition which results in a failure to enter puberty and a total lack of smell. It is a form of hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism
