Question

A three-and-a-half-year-old girl is showing symptoms of breast development and suspected menstrual bleeding, which may indicate precocious puberty. How should parents respond to this situation?

Answer

Dear parents, if your child shows signs of precocious puberty, such as breast development and unusual vaginal bleeding, it is recommended to seek medical assistance as soon as possible. Precocious puberty may be related to abnormal endocrine system function, poor dietary habits, and other factors. It is necessary to undergo professional medical examination to confirm the diagnosis and develop a treatment plan. Please take your child to the hospital for relevant examinations such as sexual hormones, pituitary gland, and thyroid function, and follow the doctor’s guidance for appropriate treatment to ensure that your child’s healthy development is not affected.
