Question
The report of a 5-year-old child suggests early puberty, with both breasts having firm lumps that are painful to the touch, measuring about 1-1.5cm in size. Please review the attached report. Can it be determined which type of early puberty it is? Is the child’s uterus and ovary development normal, and is it appropriate for her age?
Answer
Based on the information you provided, it is recommended to conduct blood tests to check for normal endocrine function, including male and female hormones. Additionally, an ultrasound examination can help assess the normality of ovarian development and the presence of early signs of puberty. Consider the child’s adolescent development in light of the test results. It is advisable to consult a pediatrician at the hospital as soon as possible. Furthermore, be attentive to the child’s dietary habits, avoiding irritant foods, and take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication to help the child recover healthily as soon as possible.
