1950L. Wilkins Diagn. & Treatm. Endocrine Disorders in Childh. & Adolescence ix. 146/2 We would suggest for this condition the term ‘premature pubarche’ which does not attempt to define its etiology. 1974N. D. Barnes et al. in M. M. Grumbach et al. Control of Onset of Puberty viii. 223 Premature pubarche or adrenarche, the isolated growth of sexual hair, is another form of precocious sexual development that may be neurogenically determined. |
