Patient's question:
Basic Information: Female, 5 monthsDisease/Symptoms: Enlarged breasts
Description of Condition: The female baby has been 5 months old. In the past month, she has noticed that her breasts are getting larger. Previously, they were normal. Please explain what is happening. Very concerned
Doctor's answer:
Consider the possibility that the baby is experiencing physiological prepubescence. It is recommended to first check the endocrine system to clarify the situation. If the baby is breastfed, it is suggested to pay attention to a light and easily digestible diet for the mother. If the baby is formula-fed, it is recommended to check if the issue lies with the formula and consider switching if necessary.Regarding the follow-up: Since the baby is breastfed and if it is physiological, how long will it take for it to subside? What should I pay attention to observe in daily life?
It is recommended to observe for two months. It will naturally disappear as the baby grows. At the same time, the baby should not be too fat.
