  2. Sexual differentiation in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_differentiation_in...

    Males become externally distinct between 8 and 12 weeks, as androgens enlarge the genital tubercle and cause the urogenital groove and sinus to fuse in the midline, producing an unambiguous penis with a phallic urethra, and the labioscrotal swellings become a thinned, rugate scrotum where the testicles are situated. Dihydrotestosterone will ...

  3. Sexual differentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_differentiation

    Sexual differentiation is the process of development of the sex differences between males and females from an undifferentiated zygote. [1] [2] Sex determination is often distinct from sex differentiation; sex determination is the designation for the development stage towards either male or female, while sex differentiation is the pathway towards the development of the phenotype.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown-rump_length

    An ultrasound showing an embryo measured to have a crown-rump length of 1.67 cm and estimated to have a gestational age of 8 weeks and 1 day. Crown-rump length (CRL) is the measurement of the length of human embryos and fetuses from the top of the head (crown) to the bottom of the buttocks (rump).

    According to the WHO, a preterm birth is defined as "babies born alive before 37 weeks of pregnancy are completed." [20] According to this classification, there are three sub-categories of preterm birth, based on gestational age: extremely preterm (fewer than 28 weeks), very preterm (28 to 32 weeks), moderate to late preterm (32 to 37 weeks). [20]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confined_placental_mosaicism

    In theory, CPM is when the trisomic cells are found only in the placenta. CPM is detected in approximately 1-2% of ongoing pregnancies that are studied by chorionic villus sampling (CVS) at 10 to 12 weeks of pregnancy. Chorionic villus sampling is a prenatal procedure which involves a placental biopsy.

  8. Nuchal scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuchal_scan

    The use of a single millimeter cutoff (such as 2.5 or 3.0 mm) is inappropriate because nuchal translucency measurements normally increases with gestational age (by approximately 15% to 20% per gestational week from 10 to 13 weeks). [10] At 12 weeks of gestational age, an "average" nuchal thickness of 2.18mm has been observed; however, up to 13% ...

    Due to natural variation, individuals pass through the Tanner stages at different rates, depending in particular on the timing of puberty.Among researchers who study puberty, the Tanner scale is commonly considered the "gold standard" for assessing pubertal status when it is conducted by a trained medical examiner.
