Association of SHBG gene polymorphism with menarche.

Molecular human reproduction - 1 Jun 2005

Xita N, Tsatsoulis A, Stavrou I, Georgiou I

Abstract excerpt

The age of menarche may be subject to hereditary influences but the specific determinants are unknown. Our aim was to investigate the possible association of a functional (TAAAA)n polymorphism in the promoter of the sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) gene with the timing of menarche. This polymorphism has been associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and is considered to contribute to SHBG levels. We...
