What is the testicular volume range for Tanner stage III males?

In Tanner stage III, males typically exhibit secondary sexual characteristics that indicate further progression in puberty. At this stage, testicular enlargement is pronounced, and the average testicular volume generally falls within the range of 6 to 12 ml. This is consistent with the development of more mature physiological traits, including increased testosterone production, which is crucial for further development of secondary sexual characteristics. Understanding the Tanner stages is important for assessing normal pubertal development, as it helps healthcare providers determine whether a child is progressing appropriately through puberty and provides insights into their hormonal development.
