dc.description.abstractObjectives Central precocious puberty (CPP) is the onset of puberty before the age of 8 in girls and 9 in boys. The primary goal of CPP treatment is control and arrest of puberty development. In this study, it was aimed to determine the factors associated with final height in patients who received gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs (GnRHa) treatment and reached their final height.Methods From the medical records of the patients, age on admission, bone age (BA), weight-standard deviation score (SDS), height-SDS, BMI-SDS, target height-SDS, basal LH, FSH, E2, age at menarche, and pelvic USG findings were obtained.Results The mean age on admission of the 67 female patients was 7.5 +/- 0.60 years. On admission, 4.5 % of the patients were obese and 19.4 % were overweight. There was no difference between BMI-SDS at admission and after treatment. The mean age at menarche was 11.57 +/- 0.78 years. About 58.2 % of the patients reached the target height, 35.8 % exceeded the target height, and 6 % were below the target height. The mean height-SDS and predicted adult height (PAH) on admission were better in patients who exceeded the target height. It was determined that target height-SDS had a positive effect on delta height-SDS, while BA/CA ratio had a negative effect.Conclusions It was found that GnRHa treatment did not have a negative effect on BMI-SDS. It was shown that 94 % of the patients who received GnRHa treatment reached the target height, and in fact, 35.8 % exceeded the target height. A greater final height may be associated with good height-SDS and PAH values on admission.en_US
