Does autism cause early puberty in girls?
9 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Nothing conclusive: There is research out there on puberty and hormonal changes in autistic boys and girls. However, the research is inconclusive at present re: precocious puberty.

No: Not in my experience. I see the same age range of puberty in my autistic girls as i did when i practiced general pediatrics.
