Signs of Early or Delayed Puberty We Treat
Puberty is when a girl's body matures, typically between about 8 and 13 years of age. A puberty disorder means this starts too early, too late, or follows an unusual pattern.
- No breast development by age 13 (delayed puberty)
- No first period by age 15, or more than 3 years after breast growth began (late periods in teenage girls, medically called primary amenorrhoea)
- Breast growth or pubic or underarm hair before age 8 (early or precocious puberty)
- Breast growth alone, or pubic or underarm hair alone (premature thelarche or premature adrenarche)
- A first period before other signs of puberty (premature menarche)
- A deepening voice or excess facial or body hair (male-pattern, or contrasexual, development)
Some patterns, such as early breast growth on its own, often settle with monitoring. Others need tests to find the cause, which the doctor can explain after an examination.
See a doctor if: there are no signs of puberty by age 13, no first period by age 15 or within 3 years of breast development starting, any signs before age 8, or any male-pattern changes.
