Q How often does Korean medicine treatment for precocious puberty require clinic visits?
A Typically once or twice a month in the early phase, then every two to three months once the condition stabilizes.
Detailed Answer
During the first three months, one to two visits per month are needed to monitor how the body responds to the prescription. Bone-age X-rays are performed every six months to track changes in the rate of bone maturation. Once the condition stabilizes, the interval between visits can be extended.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
At Dongjedang, we provide a treatment roadmap at the first visit and plan the bone-age follow-up schedule together with the family. Saturday hours are also available to accommodate school and academy schedules.
