Abstract
Objectives: These cases are that of three girls who are diagnosed as precocious puberty. It seems that the incidence of precocious puberty is rapidly increasing these days. In addition to the psychosocial disturbances associated with precocious puberty, the premature pubertal growth spurt and the accelerated bone maturation result in reduced adult height. The aim of this study was to report the effect of Jowisengchung-tang in 3 cases of precocious puberty. Methods: Retrospective and comparative analysis of 3 children who had been diagnosed with preco cious puberty. Anthropometric measurements including height, weight, body fat, body fat percent, AHP and body mass index were measured. Endocrine investigations including estradiol, luteinizing hormone(LH), FSH were conducted. Pubertal stages were determined with a questionnaire using Tanner stages. Jowisengchung-tang was given to 3 precocious puberty girls. Results: After treatment, the hormone(estradiol index) and accompanying symptoms (breast bud with elevation of breast and papilla; enlargement of areola) were reduced compared with first visit day. Conclusions: We may conclude that Korean traditional treatment of Jowisengchung-tang is effective in patients with precocious puberty and menopausal symptoms.
