 Bicalutamide is used in combination with an aromatase inhibitor such as anastrozole or letrozole in the treatment of peripheral precocious puberty in young boys.The combination has specifically been used to treat male peripheral precocious puberty due to familial male-limited precocious puberty (FMPP, otherwise known as testotoxicosis) and, to a lesser extent, McCune–Albright syndrome.Whereas antigonadotropic medications such as modulators and progestogens like cyproterone acetate and medroxyprogesterone acetate are normally used to treat central precocious puberty, these medications are less or not at all effective in peripheral precocious puberty, as this type of precocious puberty is independent of gonadotropin secretion.
