Question

A 9-year-old 1-month-old girl, born in February 2002, began to develop breasts around October 2007 and was diagnosed with pseudo-precocious puberty at Jiangxi Children’s Hospital. How should this situation be handled?

Answer

According to current standards, the normal age for girls to start their menstrual period is typically between 12 and 13 years old. Based on the described situation, the girl’s breast development started at the ages of 11 and 10, indicating an earlier developmental process but not extremely severe. If parents are concerned about this, it is recommended to bring the girl to the hospital for further examination to ensure her health status.
