2. idiopathic in girsl, pathologic in boys (hydrocephalus, CNS infections, cerebral palsy, hamartomas, astrocytomas/glyomas, head trauma) 3. GnRH stimualtion test~~~ in someone with CPP the LH/FSH will dramatically rise where as in someone who is pre-pubertal there will be very little rise in LH/FSH 4.

|
what are the causes of peripheral precocious puberty

cafe aulait spots PPP/hyperthyroidism/hyperadrenalism |
|
testotoxicosis
|
cause of PPP
~ testes enlarge independent of HPGA |
|
why does B-HCG tumors cause PPP
|
because B-HCG has some LH like activity which causes the testes to enlarge and Leydig cells to produce androgesn
|
|

when do the gonads become differentiated
|
week 9 SRY has turned the testes
|
|
development of the male internal/external genetalia
|
SRY gene causes differentiation into testes which produce AMH which causes involution of the mullerian structures and leydig cells produce testosterone which develops the wolfian system
external genetalial are formed by the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone by 5 alpha reductase ~ finished by 12 weeks |
