To evaluate retrospectively the incidence of central precocious puberty (CPP) during the COVID 19 lockdown and comparing the data with the corresponding data from the previous 2 years. The study included 23 girls with CPP and 14 patients with early puberty. Nineteen patients were newly diagnosed with CPP compared to 4 patients diagnosed with CPP during the previous 2 years. The number of new patients diagnosed with CPP was significantly higher than the mean during the previous 2 years ( P < .001). There were more overweight patients with CPP during and after the lockdown ( P < .05). These patients had also increased uterus length ( P < .05) and more advanced bone age ( P < .05). The increase in the incidence of central precocious puberty during and after the lockdown due to COVID 19 can be considered a serious consequence of the increased fat mass and an early indicator of the worsening of childhood obesity.
