Description

Plots Tanner pubertal stage measurements (genital, pubic hair, testicular volume, breast, menarche) against Dutch 1997 growth-study references as stage line diagrams, and converts observed stages to age-conditional standard deviation scores (SDS). Testicular volume can be entered as a raw orchidometer reading in ml. Implements the method of van Buuren and Ooms (2009) <doi:10.1002/sim.3567>.
