Does True Precocious Puberty Require Treatment?

The child is 8 years and 3 months old, with a height of 129.1cm and a weight of 25.2kg. One month ago, the child experienced pain in the right breast, with a hard lump upon palpation.

Consulted at Fuzhou Children’s Hospital, an X-ray of the bone age was taken, and it was assessed to be 9.7 years old, with a predicted height of 152cm ± 5cm.
