How should we determine if there is precocious puberty? What are some effective methods?

Patient's question:

At the age of 2, my son had fuzzy hair similar to a beard. Now that he is 5 years old, the hair is becoming thicker and somewhat resembling a beard. He also has many unpigmented hair follicles on his forehead, back, and legs. I'm worried it might be precocious puberty. I hope the doctor can help answer this. What tests should be done?

Doctor's answer:

Great, I'm happy to help you with the translation: As things stand, children may be affected by certain factors, including the influence of dietary factors. It's best to personally check hormone levels, maintain a light diet, eat more vegetables and fruits, and eat less meat and snacks. The child needs to check their internal hormone levels to see if it could be precocious puberty. It's important to get an early diagnosis and treatment. I recommend you seek treatment at a professional hospital.
