Precocious puberty: Precocious puberty is pubertal development before age 8 in girls . The causes are divided into gdpp) early signals from the brain, and gipp) abnormal steroid levels, such as from tumors or hormonal medication. In over 80% of gdpp in girls no cause is identified. Untreated kids generally have short adult height; obviously tumors can cause other problems as well.
