Why is it important?
This case is one of very rare cases of increased sexual desire in a patient with Klinefelter syndrome. It is opposite of what we know, and revealed that while testosterone is crucial for libido, it is not absolutely necessary for it to occur.
Perspectives
I hope that this case report will stimulate research into other factors that play some roles in sexual drive; I also believe that this can encourage more researches into the neuropsychiatric symptoms in Klinefelter syndrome.
