Patient's question:
My sister noticed that the girl had precocious puberty, so she took the child to the hospital to receive precocious puberty suppression injections. I heard that this can delay the arrival of menstruation. I want to ask how long after stopping the precocious puberty suppression injections did the 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 keeping the child warm, and avoid catching a cold.
