Puberty is the acquisition of secondary sexual characteristics associated with a growth spurt and resulting in the attainment of reproductive function. Delayed puberty is diagnosed when there is no breast development by 13.4 years of age in a girl and no testicular enlargement by 14.0 years in a boy. The aetiologies are: (i) pubertal delay, either with

The onset of puberty may be late - in the latter part of the predicted normal range or truly delayed - beyond this range. The latest age to start is usually regarded as 13 years in girls and 14 years in boys. There may also be a delayed completion of puberty, 16 years in girls and 17 years in boys.

Precocious puberty is a common presentation to pediatricians with a significant overlap between physiology and pathology. While most girls with precocious puberty have no identifiable cause, boys are more likely to have a pathological cause. The trend of earlier onset of thelarche with slow pubertal tempo has led to a significant increase in the number

Current Opinion in Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2014
Precocious puberty continues to elicit great interest and concern among medical practitioners, as well as the public.Studies have elucidated neural regulation of puberty by kisspeptin, neurokinin B, and other factors. Cohort studies from the North America and Europe suggest that the age of thelarche may be earlier than determined 2 decades ago, and ...

Puberty consists of interrelated biological changes and occurs at a time when the individual also encounters cognitive and social changes. In this article we examine our current knowledge regarding the onset of puberty, the sequence and timing of puberty, and medical issues and physiologic changes that may arise with pubertal maturation.

Delayed puberty is a frequently encountered problem causing much anxiety to patient and parents alike. Proper understanding of the normal pubertal events and its variation sets off the background to understand disorders leading to delayed puberty. An orderly clinical approach combined with continued observation helps to arrive at a final diagnosis in ...

The child with premature sexual development requires a thorough history, physical, and appropriate laboratory evaluation. The physician and other medical staff should remain sensitive to the family's concerns and the child's emotional adaptation. Counseling and open discussion of the psychosocial and sexual issues may greatly assist both the child and ...

Pediatric Annals, 2018
Delayed puberty is defined as the absence of physical signs of puberty 2 to 2.5 standard deviations above the mean age and affects approximately 2% of adolescents. Causes of delayed puberty are broadly divided into two categories: hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
