Treatment with GnRHa is unquestionably beneficial to improve FH in girls with iCPP when initiated ≤6.4 years of age. GnRHa treatment after 8.3 years of age may not improve FH. Girls between the ages of 6.4 and 8.3 years at presentation can have a better height gain if BA (≥2.6 years over CA) and pubertal findings (pubertal stage ≥3 or E2 ≥32.6 pg/ml) are well-advanced.
