Question

My daughter started showing signs of growth in October last year, and now she has grown a considerable amount of pubic hair. Is this considered early puberty? Previous treatment and outcomes: None. What kind of assistance do I need? Please advise.

Answer

Based on the situation you described, the appearance of these symptoms at the age of 9 is not considered early puberty. Guidance: It is normal for girls to start developing from the age of 9, so there is no need to worry. Girls typically grow from the ages of 8 to 12. This is the advice regarding whether pubic hair growth at the age of 9 is considered early puberty. I hope this helps, and wish you good health.
