Résumé :	[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS sGoR0xEJ. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. We examined the association between childhood abuse and early menarche in a sample of US Black women. Methods. We conducted multivariable log-binomial regression on data from 35330 participants in the Black Women's Health Study to estimate risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the relation of childhood physical and sexual abuse with early age at menarche (i.e.,<12 years). Results. In adjusted analyses, sexual abuse was positively associated with early menarche, and the risk of early menarche increased with increasing frequency of sexual abuse incidents. We observed a weak but statistically significant association between physical abuse and early menarche. Associations between sexual abuse and early menarche were stronger when we used a more stringent cutpoint for early menarche (i.e.,<11 years). Conclusions. Our data suggest an increased risk of early menarche among Black women who experienced childhood sexual abuse. Evidence for an association between childhood physical abuse and early menarche was equivocal.
