Treatment for Early Puberty - side effects??
Jun. 17th, 2005   6:21pm

Our 8 year old daughter with SWCAH has started to shows signs of early puberty so the doctors have a said she needs to start taking shots of Prostap which contains Leuprorelin to reduce oestrogen and testosterone.

We are concerned about the possible side effects such as weight gain (which is already a challenge to control because of steriod medication) and tiredness. Does anyone have any experience of this please?
