• Disorders of sexual development (DSD)

• Growth hormone deficiency or excess

• Hypogonadism (low sex hormone production)

🩺 Step-by-Step Puberty Disorder Treatment Procedure:

1. Detailed Clinical Evaluation

• Thorough history of growth milestones, family history, and pubertal progression

• Assessment of physical signs of puberty (breast development, genital growth, hair growth, voice change)

• Psychological evaluation if emotional or behavioral changes are noted

2. Advanced Diagnostic Testing

• Blood tests to evaluate:

  • LH (Luteinizing Hormone), FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone)

  • Estradiol (in girls) or Testosterone (in boys)

  • Thyroid function tests (TSH, T3, T4)

  • Prolactin levels

  • Growth hormone and IGF-1 levels

• Bone age X-ray to assess skeletal maturity

• MRI of the brain (if central nervous system causes are suspected)

3. Customized Medical Treatment

• For Precocious Puberty:

  • GnRH analog therapy to pause early puberty until the appropriate age

• For Delayed Puberty:

  • Short-term hormone replacement (testosterone or estrogen) to initiate puberty

• For Growth Disorders:

  • Growth hormone therapy if GH deficiency is diagnosed

• For Hypogonadism:

  • Long-term hormone replacement to ensure normal secondary sexual characteristics

4. Lifestyle and Psychological Support

• Nutritional advice for healthy growth and development
