Introduction
This section gives a very brief overview of genital postnatal changes that occur in neonatal, childhood and through to puberty. These topics, particularly puberty, will be revisited in detail in other parts of your course. For sexual development at puberty, we will use resources available online from Endocrinology: An Integrated Approach (NCBI Bookshelf).
Newborn
Puberty
Latin, pubertas = "adulthood"
In the teen years the endocrine changes that signal sexual development trigger changes in primary sex organs and the development of secondary sexual characteristics.
Puberty can occur over a broad range of time and differently for each sex:
|
- Links: Puberty Development | Tanner stages
Female - Hypothalamus Pituitary Gonad (HPG) Axis
Male - Testosterone
Human Male Testosterone and Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) relative levels[1]
- AMH production by Sertoli cells .
- Testosterone production by Leydig cells.
