Patient's question:
I took anti-precocious puberty medication during my developmental period until my menstruation started. Now that I am an adult, I feel that my breast development is not very good. Is it related to taking the anti-precocious puberty medication?Doctor's answer:
It should be considered precocious puberty. Precocious puberty refers to the early onset of puberty, where females develop gonadal enlargement and secondary sexual characteristics before the age of 8, or experience menstruation before the age of 10. The current situation should be diagnosed at a hospital. Timely treatment is necessary. Precocious puberty has significant negative effects on a child's physical and mental development. Due to early maturation, the growth cycle of bones is shortened, and epiphyseal plates close prematurely, affecting their final height.
