Relationship of pain and symptoms to pubertal development in adolescents

Abstract: Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) pain, abdominal pain, migraine and tension-type headache are more prevalent in women than in men. This study assessed the relationship of back pain, headache, abdominal pain, TMD pain, and the presence of multiple pain conditions to gender and pubertal development in a cross-sectional, population-based survey of adolescents. We also examined the association between pubertal development and depressive and somatic symptoms, factors often associated with pain in adults. We hypothe… Show more

“…19,20,21 Regarding the menarche status, our results are in agreement with a previous Brazilian study reporting that the female gender was significantly associated with TMD, whereas the presence of menarche was not. 21 Since the age of our sample was limited (12-14 years old), it could be said that we assessed girls at a similar pubertal stage, independently of their menarche status.…”

“…The presence of reproductive hormones seems to increase the risk of developing pain during the time that girls go through puberty. 19 However, no evidence has been found up to the present time indicating how sex hormones could affect sensory processing in the trigeminal system, 20 especially during adolescence. Considering the association among sleep bruxism, awake bruxism and other parafunctional habits, the results showed a week association between sleep and awake bruxism.…”

“…Accordingly, the 51 individuals with LE pain were categorized in the LE+ group and the 124 individuals without LE pain were categorized in the LEÀ group (Table 3). Potentially confounding variables that may influence LE pain group categorization such as age, sex, and Tanner stage were compared between the LE+ and LEÀ groups [25,36,44]. We compared age between the LE+ and LEÀ groups using independent samples t-tests and found the mean age for both groups as approximately 13 years old (Table 3) (t = 0.037, p = 0.970).…”

“…3 In general, girls experience more FSS than boys, and this difference increases during adolescence. 4 It is unknown which factors are responsible for this increase in gender difference. One possibility is that pubertal development plays a role.…”

“…Cross-sectional studies suggest that the association between pubertal development and FSS is different in boys and girls. [4][5][6] However, research in this field is scarce, and findings are sometimes contradictory. Most studies show that musculoskeletal symptoms, headache, dizziness, and fatigue increase during pubertal development in girls.…”
