Patient's question:
My daughter was born in April 2004, and in November 2011, she showed signs of early intelligence. The doctor prescribed Zhibai Dihuang Wan and Vitamin D, and after taking the medication, the symptoms disappeared. However, suddenly in the past two days, she has developed symptoms of breast growth again. What should I do now? Thank you, doctor.Doctor's answer:
Currently, it is generally believed that girls are diagnosed with precocious puberty if they develop secondary sexual characteristics before the age of 8 or experience menarche before the age of 10, and boys are diagnosed if they begin sexual development before the age of 10. If a child experiences precocious puberty again, parents should not hesitate to investigate the cause, be patient in evaluating the situation, and avoid putting mental stress on the child. Lastly, patients should develop good daily habits, maintain a regular schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase physical activity to enhance their immunity and prevent recurrence of the condition.
