Can early puberty relief be reimbursed by social security?

Patient's question:

Can social security be paid in advance for precocious puberty relief?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I am very happy to help you solve your problem. For the relief of precocious puberty, it is usually treated with an inhibitor that suppresses the function of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). This inhibitor is typically leuprorelin or goserelin, which belong to the two categories of GnRH drugs. Therefore, in this case, the medication is not covered by insurance for prepayment. It is usually within the public-funded range of drugs and is quite expensive.
