Effects of gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue on linear growth and final height in girls with central precocious puberty / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

ABSTRACT

The effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue(GnRHa) on lineafity growth and final height in 82 girls with central precocious puberty (CPP) was evaluated. The growth velocity in the second year was positively correlated with the difference value of bone age between the first year and the second year after treatment. The height standard deviation score for bone age and predicted aduh height increased after treatment. Twenty-six girls who had been followed to final height obtained better adult height than target height. GnRHa in combination with aerobic exercise increases linear growth and final height in girls with CPP.
