Dr. Xie Zixing
Causes of Precocious Puberty:
1. Traumatic brain injury.
2. Hypothyroidism (insufficient thyroid hormone secretion).
3. Hypothalamic tumors and other related disorders.
4. Excessive nutrition, particularly frequent consumption of fried foods.
In cases of severe obesity, appropriate dietary control and increased physical activity are recommended to prevent precocious puberty. If precocious puberty is caused by an underlying medical condition, timely treatment targeting the specific etiology is essential.
