Lo function gonad: This is a term to describe a low functioning gonad be it testicle or ovary. When these organs fail to release their hormones physical changes occur. Men will have low testosterone thus wont shave much if at all , height and weight is altered as well. Females will lack estrogen thus not go into puberty as the men. These are all bypass able with hormone therapy
