Diagnostic accuracy of the triptorelin stimulation test for central precocious puberty in girls
This study tested triptorelin stimulation as an alternative to the standard gonadorelin test to diagnose precocious puberty in girls. Triptorelin proved equally accurate and reliable, especially when hormone levels are measured 3 h after injection, offering a practical diagnostic tool in clinical practice.
