Is it precocious puberty?

Patient's question:

The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. Is it precocious puberty?

Doctor's answer:

The girl is already 8 years old and has started this process. In terms of breast growth and development, it appears to be normal at this stage. This is because children today have sufficient nutrition absorption, which leads to earlier physical development. Therefore, there is no issue with this. Additionally, the normal age for a girl's first menstrual period is between 11 and 16 years old. As long as the menstruation occurs within this time frame, there is nothing to worry about.
