PhenX - assessment of pubertal development - male protocol 100102

Definition

The male participant uses the Tanner staging drawings to self-assess the stage of puberty he has reached in terms of the size and shape of his testes and his pubic hair. Please use the appropriate male or female specific protocols. From Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC): We would like to assess the stage of your physical development using the drawings on the next pages. These show various stages commonly used by doctors to assess the growth and development of boys. We need to know which drawings most closely match your stage of development at the moment. Not all teenagers follow the same pattern of development. Just pick the stage that is closest, based on both the picture and the description.
