Precocious Puberty

Understanding development related symptoms and features.

Symptoms may affect multiple parts of the body. Understanding which part of the body a symptom affects, can help us to better understand the potential underlying causes of a symptom, including a rare disease or genetic syndrome.

Developmental symptoms may affect different parts of an individual’s development. These include their emotional and social development, their physical development, as well as their cognitive and communication skills.

Developmental milestones help to track a child’s developmental progress and flag a delay. A delay may be isolated or accompanied by other developmental delays either in the same area and/or in other areas too.

Symptoms relating to development may be many and wide ranging. They can include a walking delay, issues with speech and language including late talking, trouble socializing with others or with showing emotion.

What is precocious puberty?

The onset of secondary sexual characteristics before a normal age. Although it is difficult to define normal age ranges because of the marked variation with which puberty begins in normal children, precocious puberty can be defined as the onset of puberty before the age of 8 years in girls or 9 years in boys.

What should I do next?

In some instances, precocious puberty may be one of the features of a rare disease or genetic syndrome. In this case fast, targeted genetic analysis can give you a more accurate diagnosis.
