> I need to make two way scatter plot using continuos variable (hormone levels) and age in stata 12. I have around 2000 observations. Is there a command which allows using median hormone levels (instead of mean) for each age?
*--------- begin example -----------
sysuse nlsw88, clear
bys grade: egen med = median(wage)
by grade : gen byte mark = _n == 1
twoway scatter wage grade || ///
line med grade if mark, sort
