Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. Is medication required for precocious puberty?Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm very happy to help you solve your questions. Precocious puberty in children generally occurs before the age of eight, where there is the growth and development of secondary sexual characteristics, and the slowing of the growth of pubic hair. Additionally, it includes the onset of menstruation before the age of nine. Children are usually mentally immature and still exhibit a childlike demeanor. Therefore, children with precocious puberty must take medication to control it, otherwise their height will not increase, and it may also lead to many social problems.
