    Glossary Anogenital Distance

    distance between the anus and genitals

    Anogenital Distance (AGD) is the measurement from the anus to the base of the genitals. It is a marker of prenatal androgen exposure and is often used in medical and biological research to assess reproductive health and development. In males, a longer AGD is typically observed compared to females, and variations in AGD can be linked to certain health conditions and endocrine disruptions.
