Patient's question:
My daughter is 10 years old this year, with a height of 140 cm and a weight of 38 kg. She has noticed slight breast enlargement and a hard lump in her left breast, which causes pain when pressed. Her body has been growing rapidly recently, and she experienced her first menstrual period in mid-August. She hasn't gone to a regular hospital for a check-up, but the doctor she consulted said it might be precocious puberty. She has been drinking milk regularly, with a fixed daily amount.Doctor's answer:
10 years old, height 1.4 meters, weight 38 kilograms, slightly swollen breasts, rapid growth, menarche, not sufficient as evidence for precocious puberty.Guidance: Based on your description, you cannot diagnose precocious puberty. Currently, many 9 to 10-year-old girls experience menarche. Your daughter may be slightly taller, which is also related to her parents' height. Don't worry too much. If you are still concerned, it's best to go to a regular hospital.
