Mini-puberty testosterone and infant autistic traits
BackgroundLevels of steroid hormones in the first three months of life, a period referred to as ‘mini-puberty’, are one of the earliest physiological differences between typical males and females postnatally. Autistic traits also show consistent typical sex differences in later infancy, after the 18th month of life. Previous studies have shown prenatal
