"Investigation on the onset of menarche and menopause among [175]... Kaibarta females [living in Dibrugarh, in Assam, India,] is reported. Results are compared with those of the other populations in Assam.  From the analysis, it emerges...that some of the observed differences between the population might be due to the effect of ethnic, genetic and rural-urban residence, etc.  Secular trends in the age at menarche among populations of Assam are also discussed."
