Amanda,

Even if your daughter doesn’t have CAH, the fact that she is probably in precocious puberty (early puberty) is not good and would warrant treatment as the others have stated.  I believe you need to stop the bone age from progressing before her growth plates close.  She still has a way to go before that would happen but it is never too early to start the treatment.  I am sorry that you are having to go through all of this.  It’s upsetting to know that there are doctor’s out there like that.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.  We will be thinking of you.
