- Tanner III -- hair becomes more coarse and curly, and begins to extend laterally [12-14]
- Tanner IV -- adult-like hair quality, extending across pubis but sparing medial thighs [13-15]
- Tanner V -- hair extends to medial surface of the thighs [16+]
Genitals (male)
- Tanner I -- prepubertal (testicular volume less than 1.5 ml; small penis of 3 cm or less)
- Tanner II -- testicular volume between 1.6 and 6 ml; skin on scrotum thins, reddens and enlarges; penis length unchanged
- Tanner III -- testicular volume between 6 and 12 ml; scrotum enlarges further; penis begins to lengthen to about 6 cm
- Tanner IV -- testicular volume between 12 and 20 ml; scrotum enlarges further and darkens; penis increases in length to 10cm and circumference
- Tanner V -- testicular volume greater than 20 ml; adult scrotum and penis of 15 cm in length
Breasts (female)
- Tanner I -- no glandular tissue; areola follows the skin contours of the chest (prepubertal)
- Tanner II -- breast bud forms, with small area of surrounding glandular tissue; areola begins to widen
- Tanner III -- breast begins to become more elevated, and extends beyond the borders of the areola, which continues to widen but remains in contour with surrounding breast
