Precocious puberty is when puberty starts earlier than usual (before age 8 for girls and before age 9 for boys), causing early development of puberty signs. The cause is unknown but could be due to hormonal imbalances, genetic conditions, central nervous system problems, or a positive family history.
Typical Symptoms of Precocious Puberty
- Being taller than peers until about age 10
- Bleeding in between menstrual cycles / periods or after menopause
- Early puberty
- Hoarse voice
Diagnostic Questions for Precocious Puberty
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Were you taller than others until age 10?
- Have you experienced vaginal bleeding or discharge outside of your periods or after menopause?
- Did you start puberty earlier than others?
- Is your voice hoarse?
Treatment of Precocious Puberty
Treatment depends on the cause of precocious puberty. If there's an underlying medical condition, it should be treated. Medication is available to delay further development until the child reaches the normal age of puberty.

Male, 20s
My experience was great. I was worried, but the symptom checker helped me narrow down what it might be. I feel a little relieved compared to when I first started, and it gives me a starting point for what my symptoms could mean.

Male, 50s
The questions asked and possible causes seemed spot on, putting me at ease for a next-step solution.
(Sep 26, 2024)
Female, 40s
I was actually very impressed with the results it provided because, although I didn’t mention it during the questionnaire because I thought it was unrelated, it suggested I may have something I’ve actually been diagnosed with in the past.
