Patient's question:
Hello everyone, my child is 4 years and 2 months old. On the evening of the 2nd, while giving my child a bath, I noticed that the left breast was slightly larger than the right. On the 3rd, I took my child to the hospital for a check-up. The blood test results showed luteinizing hormone (LH) at 0.56, with other results being normal. The left lateral X-ray showed bone age corresponding to the standard of a 4-year-old girl.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, the abdominal ultrasound and bone age X-ray do not support precocious puberty. The breast ultrasound shows unilateral breast development, which can be observed now, and it is best to avoid foods and supplements containing hormones. If it cannot be controlled, you will continue to develop the magnetic resonance rod. Hello. The onset of puberty in girls at the age of 8 is a normal phenomenon. At the age of 3, if one nipple is slightly enlarged, it should be simple premature thelarche, which will gradually subside; in some cases, it may develop into true precocious puberty. The onset of puberty in girls always begins with breast development. If the height is within the normal range, breast development at the age of 8 is considered normal.
