[Regional forensic medical characteristics of sexual maturity]

Published data on sexual maturity of women in the North are reviewed. The authors analyze the findings of their studies and the anthropometric parameters of sexual maturity recorded in Regulations of Forensic Medical Obstetrical and Gynecological Expert Evaluations (1966) and find essential differences in the values of some parameters as regards the population of the Russian European North. The authors propose revision of the current Regulations in order to define regional standards.
