Abstract

In search of the basis of distinguishing amenorrhea, due to chromosomal mosaicism and other causes, 179 females affected by primary or secondary amenorrhea were examined, 83 of them being 45,X/46,XX mosaics. 119 traits characterizing the morphological status of the musculoskeletal and reproductive systems, as well as skin, hair and nails were scored. By means of statistical approaches, a group of 21 traits were specified, which makes it possible to diagnose the amenorrhea of chromosomal origin. Statistically significant association between the clinical manifestations and the rate of mosaicism was shown.
