REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM IN FULL-TERM AND PRETERM NEWBORN GIRLS
Abstract
Aim: To assess the reproductive system in preterm and full-term newborn girls. Materials and Methods: We recruited full-term and preterm newborn girls (58 and 42, respectively) and collected umbilical cord serum samples. Results: We measured the indicators of physical development, somatic health, vulvar anatomy, and ovarian reserve. Expectedly, we noted statistically significant differences between the preterm and full-term newborn girls. Conclusion: Premature birthaffects the reproductive system in the antenatal period.
