The treatment of this disease depends on the cause. The current treatment goals are:1. Inhibit or slow sexual development, especially to prevent menstrual pain in girls;
2. Inhibit bone maturation and improve final adult height.
Guidelines: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs can be used for treatment. Their function is to reduce the secretion of pituitary gonadotropins through downregulation, thereby restoring estrogen levels to prepubertal levels.
Parents should also pay attention to limiting the amount of chicken, beef, lamb, silkworm pupae, etc., given to children. Avoid the indiscriminate use of so-called children's food that has not been rigorously tested. Do not give children excessive nutritional supplements, such as royal jelly, pollen preparations, chick embryo, and other "tonic" medications. Properly store birth control pills, breast enhancement and beauty products, etc., to prevent children from accidentally ingesting or coming into contact with them.
