[Present changes in age of menarche in Görlitz born girls (author's transl)]. 1979

J Richter

In former studies we could show, that the menarche of Görlitz-born girls accelerated from annual-set to annual-set between 1944 and 1953. The annual-sets 1954 to 1958 have constantly a mean-age of menarche from 12 years and 3 months. In 1959 and 1960 born girls we find now, that they have a menarche-mean-age of 12 years and 10 months. Also there are some girls, which had her menarche first again after ending her 15. year of life.
