Abstract: | Background Nourishing "Yin"-Removing "Fire" Chinese Herb Mixture, a traditional herb-based formulation, has been successfully used for
the management of idiopathic true precocious puberty (IPP) for more than thirty years. Precocious puberty rat model by neonatal
administration of Danazol was used to investigate the effects of the herb mixture on the advanced sexual development of the
rats, and the expression of hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which is the important regulator for the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal
axis, particularly at puberty. |
