Answer
Girls who show signs of sexual organ development before the age of 8 and boys before the age of 9 are considered to have precocious puberty. It is recommended to undergo tests for sex hormones, bone age, and growth hormone to rule out precocious puberty. For children with precocious puberty, in addition to timely sex education, efforts should be made to provide psychological care and actively adopt effective treatment measures. The ideal treatment for precocious puberty is to provide treatment based on the confirmed diagnosis and targeted at the cause of the disease.
