In aromatase-deficient men, GH response to potent provocative stimuli is impaired and is not restored by exogenous estrogens.

Abstract
In aromatase-deficient men, GH response to potent provocative stimuli is impaired and is not restored by exogenous estrogens. Furthermore, a tall stature may be reached, notwithstanding the coexistence of GHD: the prolonged time for growth due to a delay in bone maturation, and other growth factors different from GH promote growth.
