How to judge precocious puberty

Patient's question:

I don't know if he has this condition, and his mental state isn't good either. How can one determine true precocious puberty?

Doctor's answer:

For children with precocious puberty, the etiology should be carefully investigated, and wrist bone X-rays, ultrasound examinations, endocrine function tests, etc., should be performed to confirm the diagnosis. Currently, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogs are used for treatment in both domestic and international settings. Common formulations include Dafalgan and Decapeptyl. These formulations can continuously act on receptors, significantly reducing the synthesis and secretion of steroid hormones by the gonads. However, this inhibition is temporary and reversible.
