195 girls aged 14-16 years with the disturbances of sexual development of chromosomal and non-chromosomal genesis were examined. In girls with Shereshevsky-Turner syndrome, the body mass and length, as well as the relative adipose tissue content, were significantly decreased as compared with those in girls with the disturbances of sexual development of non-chromosomal genesis. The differences in somatotype distribution between these groups were detected.

KF activity was similar in the compared groups and 14 control girls, while SDG activity and FSH levels were much higher in STS girls compared to control girls and girls with amenorrhea of non-chromosome genesis. Thus, FSH has a considerable influence upon metabolic parameters of immune system cells.
