pubertyBackground: Recurrent depressive episodes during adolescence result in significant impairment and increased risk for subsequent adverse outcomes throughout the life span. Evidence suggests that early pubertal timing predicts the onset of depressive episodes (particularly for girls); however, it is ...

The present method shows that the mean L H levels in prepubertal boys are much lower, and the increase during puberty larger, than previously reported. The increase is apparently due to increased pulse frequency and amplitude. The increase in mean FSH level is smaller and evidently not caused ...
