Adrenarche Regeneration of zona reticularis Production of androgens (DHEAS,
DHEA, androstenedione) Gonadarche
Pulsatile release of GnRH from hypothalamus →
Anterior pituitary releases LH + FSH →
Ovaries produce estrogen
Adrenarche and Gonadarche

Thelarche: ↑ estrogen → breast development (10 yo)
Pubarche: ↑ androgens → pubic and axillary hair development (11 yo)
Menarche: ↑ estrogen → first menses (12 yo) Typically 2.5 years after thelarche Concerning if does not occur by age 15 or 3 years after thelarche
Growth spurt: ↑estrogen → ↑ GH and somatomedin c

Onset of secondary sexual characteristics <8 yo
Central (gonadotropin-dependent) precocious puberty Premature activation of HPG axis Appropriate sexual characteristics (but early) ↑ linear growth, ↑ bone age, ↑ FSH, LH and estradiol 80-90% idiopathic in girls; some due to CNS lesions
Precocious Puberty

Peripheral (gonadotropin-independent) precocious puberty
Excess secretion of sex hormones from peripheral source Eg adrenal glands, ovaries, exogenous source, germ cell tumor
Possible normal sexual characteristics or virilization Causes include:
Ovarian cysts or tumors (granulosa theca cell) McCune-Albright Syndrome Primary hypothyroidism Congenital adrenal hyperplasia Adrenal tumor

Premature thelarche Isolated breast development
Premature adrenarche Isolated male-hormone mediated sexual characteristics
Possibly just variant of normal puberty Continue to monitor
Isolated precocious puberty
