Frolich's syndrome is the condition of the lateral hypothalamus that actually increases appetite. Through research, not wikipedia, I found that it not only affects your metabolism but it affects your sexual characteristics, which I didn't expect at all. This disorder will cause absence of genitals! How does that even happen? How does a hypothalamus disorder affect your genital growth?
Flolich's syndrome was associated with tumors of the hypothalamus which also depresses secretion of gonadotropin. Another interesting fact is that it was only boys who receive this disorder. I'm sure that girls, when they destroy the lateral hypothalamus, will receive this disorder.
