Re: what are the signs of late onset cah?

There are many different signs, some are early puberty ie: pubic hair early, period early, under arm hair early (like around 7 to 9 years) tall for age than stops growing, acne, facial hair around 10 to 12 years or so. Some of these signs show up early, some like facial hair can show up later. I had many female problems like a period for 3 months at 10. I was 5'3" at 9 and never grew again. I than developed facial hair and a deep voice by 13. I hope this helps if you go to the late onset board Wendy has a great sight for you to read about nonclassical CAH. God Bless and Good luck (have her tested she may be a carrier and will need to know when she trys to concieve.)
