Question

My child is just over 9 years old, and her breasts have started to develop. I’m worried she might have precocious puberty. How should I treat it?

Answer

The treatment for precocious puberty must be diagnosed in a regular hospital, and self-diagnosis or medication is not allowed. Early detection and timely treatment of precocious puberty are very important, not only to prevent the development of other sexual characteristics but also to correct those that have already appeared, helping the child achieve a normal psychological state and the expected adult height. Through the diagnosis and treatment of precocious puberty, the underlying cause can also be identified and treated. It is recommended to seek treatment for your child as soon as possible, as active treatment holds hope for a cure.
