Abstract
Sonographic measurement of uterine and ovarian volume was performed in 178 healthy girls ranging in age from newborn to 14 years. High value s were measured during the neonatal age and puberty, in contrast to th ose in subjects between 1 month and 7 years of age. We conclude that a ge and pubertal stage are important parameters in correctly interpreti ng the size of the uterus and ovaries in childhood.
