Boys are heavier than girls at term birth. Children with a 46,XY karyotype and androgen insensitivity syndrome (clinically complete form and/or proven mutations in the androgen receptor gene) were found to have a birth weight comparable to that of girls. These findings support the hypothesis that the difference in birth weight between boys and girls is generated by androgen action.
足月出生时男孩比女孩重。发现具有46,XY核型和雄激素不敏感综合征(临床完全型和/或雄激素受体基因证实的突变)的儿童出生体重与女孩相当。这些发现支持了男孩和女孩出生体重差异是由雄激素作用产生的这一假说。
