What should be done about precocious puberty?

Patient's question:

At the age of 8, testicular development begins, at 9, pubic hair starts to grow, and by 10, there is nocturnal emission. I am very worried that it might be precocious puberty caused by a disease, such as a brain tumor or adrenal cortex issues. Can I get checked? Which hospital should I go to, and which department should I register with?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, considering that your child may experience nocturnal enuresis at the age of 10, which indicates early maturation, it is recommended to visit a hospital for examination. Suggestions and recommendations: Check bone age and growth hormone levels. Generally, it may be helpful to take Da Yin Bu Wan and Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan. If necessary, Da Fei Lin treatment may be required. It is usually important to follow dietary guidance.
Hello, according to your description, this is a normal phenomenon. If you are not at ease, it is advisable to take your child to a regular hospital for examination.
