Patient's question:
My sister noticed that the girl had precocious puberty, so she took her to the hospital to get injections to suppress early puberty. I heard that this can delay the arrival of menstruation. I want to ask how long after stopping the precocious puberty suppression injections did menstruation come?Doctor's answer:
In a week, menstruation will occur. These drugs are gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs. The purpose of using this medication is to inhibit gonadal development, delay bone maturation, and ultimately increase adult height. Generally, it needs to be applied until the age of 12. This will take less than a year, but it is still better to use it. If you can continue using it, the effect may be better. You can refer to these data appropriately, pay attention to it in daily life, keep the child warm, and avoid catching a cold.
