“…Detailed information on the original cohort has previously been published (13,14). A nested cohort in the present cross sectional study was selected to undergo an MRI study with several outcomes (breast tissue, abdominal fat mass, adrenal glands, internal genitalia) of which some previous results have been published (15,16). For the nested cohort, the selection criterion was high attendance rate at previous examinations.…”

“…Uterine volume was calculated in 112 girls (Ellipsoid TAUS) and the endometrial thickness measured in 110 girls. Details regarding TAUS have previously been described (16,19) Reproductive Hormone Assays All blood samples (n = 112) were drawn between 8:00 AM and 2:00 PM from an antecubital vein, clotted, and centrifuged; serum was stored at −20 °C until hormone analyses. Blood samples were analyzed after maximum 2 y of storage.…”

“…Thus, according to a number of scientists, the prevalence of various obstetric-gynecological pathologies varies depending on the somatotype, increasing or decreasing from asthenic somatotype to hypersthenic [4,10,11]. Among girls and women who suffer from menstrual and reproductive disorders, roughly the same percentage of cases is found in asthenic and picnic somatotype [23].…”

“…Uterine volume and endometrial thickness were positively correlated with pubertal stage. Circulating E2 from large follicles was the main contributor to uterine and endometrial growth [34], and uterine length seemed to be the best parameter for distinguishing between patients with central precocious puberty and patients with premature thelarche [35]. Uterine growth begins at the age of approximately 10 years, closely in line with the onset of breast development and early pubertal development, and very recently the derivation of a validated normative model with age-related reference values for uterine volume from birth to age 40 years has had important clinical applications in the assessment of females with precocious puberty [36] and supports the validity of uterine length as a measure of estrogen exposure.…”
