Boys with constitutional delay of growth and puberty developed spontaneous puberty and reached standard adult height without pharmacological therapy

In boys with CDGP, transient short stature improved spontaneously during puberty. Most achieved their target height without growth-promoting therapy. However, adult height predictions based on the Bayley-Pinneau method were often overestimated. Spontaneous puberty initiation and completion occurred at approximately 15 and 17 years of age, respectively.

Abstract

In boys with CDGP, transient short stature improved spontaneously during puberty. Most achieved their target height without growth-promoting therapy. However, adult height predictions based on the Bayley-Pinneau method were often overestimated. Spontaneous puberty initiation and completion occurred at approximately 15 and 17 years of age, respectively.
