Aufgrund der von Seiten der Betroffenen z.T. sehr kämpferisch geführten Debatten, wurde das therapeutische Konzept intersexueller Genitalbefunde neu überdacht. In einer interdisziplinären Runde werden genetische, klinische, chirurgische/ urologische, sexualmedizinische und psy- chotherapeutische Aspekte erörtert. Die Beschlüsse des Deut- schen Ethikrates werden kritisch beleuchtet. Eine geschichtliche Betrachtung des Themas "Die Rolle des Geschlechts in der Ge- sellschaft" rundet diesen Themenkomplex ab. Die Vorträge zum Thema Gonadenfunktionen repetieren den aktuellen Wissensstand zum Thema Pubertätsentwicklung (Pubertas praecox, Pubertas tarda; Hormontherapie der P.p., Maldescensus testis, Menstruationsstörungen). Es werden so- nographische Befunde zum Thema ovarielle Veränderungen im Kindesalter vorgestellt. Unter der Rubrik "Aktuelles aus Klinik und Forschung" wer- den Studienergebnisse zur Entwicklung Frühgeborener und hypothropher Kinder referiert, sowie Daten zum Outcome nach- folgender Entbindungen bei Schnittentbindungen. Mit unseren interdisziplinären Workshops haben wir 2003 begonnen. Wir können in diesem Jahre 2013 demnach 10 Jahre SGA-Workshop feiern. Die Ergebnisse der Workshops wurden in dem jetzt erschienenen Buch "Caring for children born small for gestational age" (Springer Health, London) zusammengefasst. Ich danke allen Beteiligten und

  • From Prenatal Life Into Senescence, Testosterone Is Essential Requirement for Manhood
    Special Article From Prenatal Life into Senescence, Testosterone is Essential Requirement for Manhood Wisuit Pradidarcheep PhD*, Udomsri Showpittapornchai PhD* * Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Srinakharinwirot University, Bangkok, Thailand Prenatally, organisms have the bipotentiality to differentiate along either male or female lines, a process with different stages, each with a narrow window of time, during which testosterone plays a pivotal role in the case of male sexual differentiation. During puberty, the body directs the masculinization process with growth of the genitalia and prostate. Body contours become male, with an average height of 10-15 centimeters greater than that of females, a greater bone and muscle mass, a male hair pattern and a male-type fat distribution. These pubertal developments, largely reversible in case of severe androgen deficiency, require adult levels of testosterone throughout life. A new area of interest is in exploring how far age-related body changes (loss of bone and muscle mass, a shift into a higher ratio of body fat/lean body mass) are part of an age-related decline of testicular testosterone production. Therefore, throughout life, testosterone is essential for a normal male life. Keywords: Aging, Bone, Penis, Sex differentiation, Skin J Med Assoc Thai 2009; 92 (4): 573-87 Full text. e-Journal: http://www.mat.or.th/journal If, as Freud stated ‘anatomy is destiny’(1), produced by the adrenal gland and in women by the then the hormone testosterone, is a key player in our ovary.

Indeed, testosterone determines whether hormone and its action is not mediated by testosterone we are born as a boy or a girl, and whether the former itself but by its local conversion products, 5α-dihydro- further successfully transitions from boyhood to testosterone (DHT) and/or estradiol (E2).

  • Testicular Cancer, Patients
    Step-by-Step Male Genital Examination Testicular volume Testicular volume is assessed using an orchidometer; a sequential series of beads ranging in size from 1 mL to 35 mL (see Image 1). Conduct the examination in a warm environment, with the patient lying on their back. 1. Gently isolate the testis and distinguish it from the epididymis. Then stretch the scrotal skin, without compressing the testis. 2. Use your orchidometer to make a manual side-by-side comparison between the testis and beads (see Image 2). 3. Identify the bead most similar in size to the testis, while making allowance not to include the scrotal skin. Normal testicular volume ranges Childhood Puberty Adulthood < 3 mL 4-14 mL 15-35 mL Image 1 – Orchidometer Clinical notes • Asymmetry between testes is common (e.g. 15 mL versus 20 mL) and not medically significant. Why use an orchidometer? • Asymmetry is sometimes more marked following unilateral Testicular volume is important in the diagnosis of androgen testicular damage. deficiency, infertility and Klinefelter syndrome. • Testes are roughly proportional to body size. • Low testicular volume suggests impaired spermatogenesis1. • Small testes (< 4 mL) from mid puberty are a consistent feature of Klinefelter syndrome2. Examination of secondary sexual characteristics Gynecomastia • Gynecomastia is the excessive and persistent development of benign glandular tissue evenly distributed in a sub-areolar position of one or both breasts (see Image 3)3. • Can cause soreness and considerable embarrassment. • Common during puberty, usually resolves in later adolescence3. Image 2 – Example of 30 mL and 4 mL adult testis • Causes include increased estrogen, low testosterone, various medications, marijuana, androgen abuse and abnormal liver function3, 4, 5.

I am very grateful for all the support that she has given me to pursue all my “crazy” but “creative” research ideas and projects, even when these ideas took longer than expected to implement. I am also very thankful that I have been able to shadow her at grant planning meetings and research meetings, participate in her teaching, and work on invited research articles and book chapters with her. After five years working with her, I have grown professionally and I have become more confident to pursue a career in academia. I would also like to thank all my committee members.

Several reports highlighting suboptimal physical and psychosexual outcomes in individuals who have a DSD led to a radical revision of nomenclature and management a decade ago. Whereas the resulting recommendations for holistic, multidisciplinary care seem to have been implemented rapidly in specialized paediatric services around the world, adolescents often experience difficulties in finding access to expert adult care and gradually or abruptly cease medical follow- up. Many adults with a DSD have health- related questions that remain unanswered owing to a lack of evidence pertaining to the natural evolution of the various conditions in later life stages. This Consensus Statement, developed by a European multidisciplinary group of experts, including patient representatives, summarizes evidence-based and experience-based recommendations for lifelong care and data collection in individuals with a DSD across ages and highlights clinical research priorities. By doing so, we hope to contribute to improving understanding and management of these conditions by involved medical professionals. In addition, we hope to give impetus to multicentre studies that will shed light on outcomes and comorbidities of DSD conditions across the lifespan.
