advanced bone age but not precocious puberty

[ccraner]

My daughter is 7 with a bone age of 10.  The pediatrician ran blood tests and the pediatric endocrinologist said she isn't in puberty.  He ordered an MRI.  I'm assuming he's looking for a tumor on the pituitary gland.  What are the chances that the tumor would be cancerous and if it's not a tumor what else could cause the advanced bone age?

Did you have any luck with the Letrozole.  What was his daily dose.  I am looking for an aggressive endocrinologist and yours sounds like he or she is.  Can you give me the contact information.  Please respond

My son has the same issue.  Did you guys find anything out and what about putting them on Letrozole in order to slow down the bone maturation.

If you receive any information on this, can you please post this. My son is having the same problem..age 9 bone age 11 1/2 .  My son's endocrinologist can't figure out.

Thank you.
