Pubertal development in Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) varies from hypogonadism to precocious puberty. Pubertal development assessment based on clinical features and hormone levels is needed in central precocious puberty (CPP) treatment with PWS. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone analog (GnRHa) therapy is useful for CPP with PWS, and pubertal development can be restored with GnRHa therapy discontinuation.
