Table 1: Anthropometric and basic endocrinological parameters.
Shown as mean ± SD. Significant differences between the 4 functional androgenization syndrome groups FAS I to IV [1,2] and the control (co) are shown in bold figures (ANOVA on ranks + Dunn´s test or Oneway ANOVA), italic letters explain the respective groups (FAS I-IV, co).
