Patient's question:
A colleague's child from our unit came to my house to play yesterday. But at the age of 7, the child was already as tall as my neck, and seemed quite chubby. The most important thing was that their breasts had even started to develop slightly. It was truly frightening to see.Doctor's answer:
A colleague's child from my unit came to play at my house. They are only 7 years old, but already as tall as my neck. They look quite chubby, and surprisingly, their breasts have started to develop slightly. It's likely precocious puberty in the child.Hello, the age at which children are considered to have precocious puberty is generally when boys show secondary sexual characteristics before the age of 9, and girls before the age of 8. Every child has a different constitution and development process. I hope my answer satisfies you.
