Patient's question:
The little girl is now eight years old. After the National Day holiday last year, her breasts grew. She went to the gynecology and pediatrics department for a follow-up examination, had her bone age measured, and the results matched her actual age. After a while, her breasts returned to their previous size. In May of this year, she also had her bone age assessed, and the results again matched her actual age. Now her breasts have grown again. Is this central precocious puberty?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it should be precocious puberty. It may be due to a disorder in the excretion of sex hormones. If you want to know whether it is central, further careful examinations are needed, such as blood tests or CT scans. There are many treatment methods for this disease, but since the patient's condition is different, the treatment methods will also vary. Therefore, it is necessary for the patient to go to a professional institution for detailed testing as soon as possible to treat the symptoms accordingly.
