晨尿促性腺激素在中枢性性早熟诊断和监测中的应用

Abstract

Abstract:

Central precocious puberty (CPP) significantly impacts children's growth potential and psychological well-being. Currently, the diagnosis of CPP primarily relies on the GnRH stimulation test, which is cumbersome and involves multiple blood draws, causing patient discomfort. In recent years, morning urinary gonadotropin measurement has gained attention due to its non-invasiveness and convenience. This article reviews recent advances in urinary gonadotropin testing for CPP diagnosis, analyzes its clinical feasibility, and discusses current challenges and future directions.

Key words: central precocious puberty, morning voided urinary, gonadotropin, diagnosis, monitor
