Question
An 8-year-old girl has a slight bulge on the right breast and no reaction on the left side. What is the standard of development for an 8-year-old and a half girl?
Answer
The child’s height and weight are within the normal range. Breast development typically occurs around the age of 12, but due to factors like diet, it may occur earlier. Early development in an 8-year-old girl may require examination, especially attention to precocious puberty. Adjustments in diet are recommended, such as reducing consumption of soy milk and fried chicken legs. If necessary, a check-up for sex hormones can be conducted, with normal development typically completing around the age of 13.
