Study Summary

Aim 1- To examine the differences in pain sensitivity between adolescents at early vs. mid pubertal status Aim 2- To determine the relationships between sex hormone levels and pain sensitivity Exploratory Aim 1- To determine the effect of pubertal maturation on pain sensitivity Exploratory Aim 2- To identify parameters related to who will develop chronic pain during puberty Hypothesis 1- Adolescents in early pubertal status will have higher pain ratings and lower pain modulation capabilities compared to adolescents in mid puberal status. Hypothesis 2- Pain sensitivity will be associated with sex hormone levels. Exploratory Hypothesis 1- As adolescents mature, they will have a decrease in pain sensitivity to experimental pain which will be related to changes in sex hormone levels. Exploratory hypothesis 2- Female adolescents with greater pain sensitivity, lower testosterone levels and with a family history of pain would be at a higher risk to develop chronic pain

Primary Outcome

A 30-second tonic heat pain at the intensity of 46°C will be delivered to the volar forearm. During the heat stimulus, pain intensity ratings will be obtained.
