Question

My child has been diagnosed with precocious puberty by a doctor at the hospital last month. He is only eight and a half years old, but his bone age is 11. What is the best method for treating precocious puberty?

Answer

The best treatment methods: 1. Pharmacological treatment with gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs, 2. Pharmacological progestin derivatives, which can repeatedly inhibit the pituitary gland from producing sex hormones, 3. Traditional Chinese medicine and herbal medicine treatment, 4. Growth hormone. Opinion and advice: When treating precocious puberty, it is important to choose the method that causes the least harm to the child. Most cases of precocious puberty are pseudo-precocious puberty, which is caused by excessive nutrition in children, so parents must do a good job of their daily child care work to prevent precocious puberty from affecting their children.
