Medical Conditions - Tanner Scale

The tanner scale is the pictorial and descriptive narrative of external changes happening between puberty and maturity in boys and girls. In girls, puberty starts between the age of 8 to 13 years, and in boys, it starts between the age of 9 to 14 years. This scale uses the parameter of changes in body hair patterns, size of the breasts, testicles, and penis.
