Patient's question:
One breast is developing, and after examination, it was found that the breast development is premature. Later, it was discovered that the uterus and bone age are normal. Additionally, another test was conducted involving blood draws every half hour for four times in half a day, which also showed normal results. I just want to know if it is indeed true precocious puberty. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Simple unilateral breast development, cannot confirm precocious puberty, and both the uterus and ovaries are undeveloped. It is recommended to regularly monitor or re-examine. Pay attention to meals. Avoid eating seasonal fruits or junk food. Before puberty, if the child's breast development occurs, pay attention to the development of secondary characteristics such as menstruation. The treatment approach involves educating the adolescent and avoiding excessive dietary supplements in daily life, which can now be observed. I suggest you visit the hospital promptly for hormone level testing, as this may likely indicate precocious puberty, which could affect the child's development in various aspects.
