Precocious puberty, that is puberty that starts before age 8 in girls and 9 in boys seems to be on the rise, but whether that’s because of an increase in incidence, or greater attention is unknown - what we do know that precocious puberty in girls is commonly idiopathic, while in boys is a red flag for pathology. But either way ther first point of call is the GP. In this podcast, Steven Bradley GP, and Neil Lawrence, paediatric trainee join us to discuss how common precocious puberty is, how GPs should respond to a family presenting with it, and if intimate examination is actually warranted in primary care.
