Patient's question:
Doctor, hello: My 2.5-year-old daughter recently discovered a hard lump in her chest, slightly larger than a peanut. Hospital tests showed elevated estradiol (30), and the lump doesn't hurt. Is she experiencing precocious puberty? What should we do? How should it be treated? What kind of help do we need: Is she experiencing precocious puberty?Doctor's answer:
Your child's condition should be a manifestation of elevated estradiol (30), which falls under precocious puberty. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) considers this to be a sign of excessive "xinghuo" (phase fire).1. Please consult a TCM practitioner for a clear diagnosis and treatment. After the doctor has accurately identified the condition, Chinese herbal medicine can be prescribed. Consider using Zhipai Dihuang Wan.
2. Choose children's cosmetics and cleaning products, avoiding adult ones.
3. Timely supplement the nutrients your child needs for growth and development. Consider products like Longmu Zhuanggu Zhongji and Centrum.
4. Eat less meat and legume-based foods.
5. Monitor your child's physical changes and contact the doctor promptly if any issues arise.
