Abstract

Stature, body mass and the appearance of menarche were investigated in 139 medical students, born in Vojvodina, mean age of 19,33 <= 0,54. The examination was done using retrospective method. The results were shown that the mean stature of the girls was 167,14 <= 6,44 cm, the mean body mass was 60,06 <= 9,33 kg. The median of year of menarche was found to be 12,83 <=1310. Comparing these results with results obtained by similar examination in 1971/72 (Gavrilović i sar., 1976, 1982), it can be seen that the today's girls (medical students) are 3,62 cm taller, have got 2,06 kg plus and the time of menarche is 0,34 year earlier versus the girls in 1971/72. Respectively, the acceleration of growth and development is 1,81 cm (stature), 1,03 kg (body mass) and 0,17 year (menarche) per decade.
