[Plasma estorgens and testosterone in the normal young girl before and during puberty].
Base levels of estrone (E1), estradiol-17-beta (E2) and testosterone (T) were measured by radio-immunoassay. Results were classified according to the stages of puberty (Tanner scale) in 89 normal girls ranging from 1 to 22 years of age. Fourty-three pathological cases were studied. In 22 cases of ovarian agenesis E2 and T were most often low. In 7 cases of isolated breast prococity, 4 cases of isolated pilous precocity, one case of isolated genital hemorrhage and 5 cases of hypopituitarism, E1, E2 and T levels were similar to those of impuberal girls. Levels of oestrogens were increased in 4 cases of true precocious puberty.
