Question
The child has been crying incessantly lately and doesn’t eat much. How should precocious puberty be treated?
Answer
Reaching menarche around the age of ten is considered an early stage of growth and development. Some girls may enter puberty earlier, so it’s best to minimize snacking and consume more healthy foods. If there is indeed an early stage of growth and development, there’s no need to worry too much. Traditional Chinese medicine can be used for opsonize, usually related to yin deficiency and fire excess. Treatments like Zhibai Dihuang Wan or Liuzi Dihuang Wan can be tried. Additionally, hormone tests can be conducted at a hospital.
