[The frequency and character of clinical manifestations of androgenization among adolescent girls].

By clinical examination of 700 adolescent girls aged 11-17 high frequency of androgen depended manifestations, such as acne, seborrhea, hypertrichosis or their combination was detected in prepubertal and pubertal periods (4.7%, 6.8%, 2.9% and 20.6%, 5.3%, 3.0% correspondingly). Above-mentioned signs developed as a result of activation of androgens secretion by adrenal glands and ovaries, which are physiological processes during pubertal period. The combination of these signs with hirsutism and menstrual disorders may be a manifestation of endocrine- reproductive disorders. Results of our data indicate to infirmity, expediency and importance of prophylactic examination among adolescent girls. Low rate of attendance to medical care among adolescents with clinical manifestations with probable endocrine and reproductive disorders indicates to the importance of their early diagnosis during adolescence and timely initiation of the treatment.
