Hitler had hidden genetic sexual disorder, new study claims

Adolf Hitler

In May 1945, after the fall of Berlin, Allied soldiers entered Adolf Hitler's bunker.

Among them was American Colonel Roswell P. Rosengren, who took as a “souvenir” a piece of the sofa where the Nazi leader had committed suicide. Eighty years later, that blood-stained piece was used to look at Hitler’s DNA for the first time, revealing unusual details about his genes and health.

The research, carried out by University of Leicester professor Turi King – known for identifying the remains of King Richard III – will be featured in the Channel 4 documentary "Hitler's DNA: A Dictator's Plan".

According to the analysis, Hitler suffered from Kallmann syndrome, a genetic disorder that prevents the normal development of puberty and sexual organs. This condition explains low testosterone levels and the possibility of sexual function problems, which, historians say, may have contributed to his personal isolation and obsessive focus on politics.

The study also debunks the old myth that Hitler had Jewish ancestry, confirming his Austrian-German origins.

On the other hand, polygenic analysis suggests that he had high predispositions for autism, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, although researchers emphasize that these do not constitute diagnoses and cannot justify his actions.

“Genetics can never justify what Hitler did,” said Professor King. “But it helps us understand the biological and psychological complexity of such a dark historical figure.”

The scientists were careful to emphasize that these findings should not be used to stigmatize people with similar conditions. As psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen of the University of Cambridge puts it: “Human behavior is never 100 percent genetic. To link Hitler’s atrocities to such disorders would be an injustice to the millions of people who live with them.”

The sample used, stored at the Gettysburg History Museum in the US, was proven authentic after its DNA matched that of a known relative of Hitler.

Ultimately, the new study does not offer a "genetic code of evil," but shows that genes are only part of the story - the rest is written by choices, circumstances, and society.
