Abstract: In this article, we give a refinement of the mean value theorem for the class number of quadratic extensions obtained by Goldfeld-Hoffstein and Datskovsky. More specifically, we determine the proportional constants of the mean value for fields that satisfy any local conditions including wild ramification at places dividing $ 2$.
