Abstrakt		Variation of menarcheal age according to the season of birth was observed in a sample of 464 eleven- to sixteen - year old girls from the Maribor region. The mean menarcheal age was correlated with the temperature conditions during pregnancy. The mean menarcheal age in girls born in autumn and winter whose mothers were pregnant during the warm period of the year was statistically significantly lower in comparison with the girls born in other seasons of the year. The influence of better prenatal conditions is in our opinion important for postnatal physical and sexual development.
Izvleček		Starost ob menarhi v povezavi z letnim časom ob rojstvu je obravnavana na vzorcu 464 od enajst do šestnajstletnih deklet iz Maribora in okolice. Starost ob menarhi je povezana s temperaturnimi razmerami v času prenatalnega rdzvoja naših preiskovank. Povprečna starost ob nastopu menarhe deklet rojenih jeseni in pozimi je statistično značilno nižja od starosti ob menarhi deklet, rojenih v ostalih obdobjih leta. Sklepamo, da ugodnejše razmere v času nosečnosti ugodno vplivajo na razvoj zarodka in postnatalni fizični in spolni razvoj deklet.
