Pubertad precoz y adelantada

Abstract

La edad en que la pubertad se inicia es muy variable, existiendo una tendencia secular del crecimiento y desarrollo en los últimos años, influenciada, además de por el sexo, por factores genéticos y ambientales. Su presentación precoz puede ser una simple variación extrema de la normalidad o el reflejo de alguna de las múltiples patologías que pueden influir o condicionar el momento de su aparición. La pubertad precoz central idiopática, derivada de la reactivación precoz del eje hipotálamo-hipófiso-gonadal, es la forma más frecuente de pubertad precoz en ambos sexos. Sin embargo, es fundamental para el pediatra de Atención Primaria conocer las distintas causas congénitas y adquiridas de pubertad precoz, realizar una orientación diagnóstica adecuada y diferenciar aquellas variantes de la normalidad de la pubertad de las que no lo son, para derivar a un servicio de Endocrinología Pediátrica si lo considera necesario, ya que el desarrollo de los caracteres sexuales secundarios a una edad “inadecuada” es motivo de preocupación para los padres y los pacientes y puede tener repercusiones negativas en la vida adulta.
