Patient's question:

What are the treatment methods for male precocious puberty?
Doctor's answer:
For boys, precocious puberty is relatively rare, with a lower incidence rate, and in most cases, it is associated with certain abnormalities of the central nervous system, most commonly intracranial tumors. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the cause of precocious puberty in boys. If it is caused by a brain tumor, the tumor must be removed and then treated. Treating the child before tumor removal is futile and has little meaning. If it is true precocious puberty and has been ruled out by intracranial tumors, then suppressive medication for the gonad initiation must be used for treatment.
