Abstract

We determined the urinary excretion of androsterone, pregnanediol, pregnanetriol, estron, estradiol and estriol by gas-liquid chromatography or by fluorometry. The values are given in accordance to the bone age of the girls. There was not only an increase in the total steroid excretion but also changes in the relationship of the steroids one to another.
