Precocious puberty (PP) refers to the appearance of physical and hormonal signs of pubertal development at an abnormally early age. Urinary steroid signatures obtained from 42 patients with central PP and 40 patients with peripheral PP were assessed to compare metabolic changes. Levels of androgens such as testosterone, androstenedione, androstenediol, 16 alpha-hydroxy-dehydroepiandrosterone, and 5 alpha-androstenedione tended to be high in both PP groups, and the level of 17 beta-estradiol was higher in the central-PP group (P
