precocious puberty
"My 8 year old daughter has been diagnosed with precocious puberty.  While being proactive about the whole issue of stunted growth and and early menses etc., We (my husband and I) were in the process of setting up an appointment to have her initial injection of the drug, lupron depot-PED and guess what?...she started her first menstrual cycle.  We still went ahead with the treatment as planned.  We are three treatments into the whole plan and things are going well but there is a side effect that has lingered hot flushes that are still waking her up during the night."
