What are the symptoms of precocious puberty in infants?

Patient's question:

What are the symptoms of precocious puberty in infants? Thank you, doctor.

Doctor's answer:

Precocious puberty refers to the re-emergence of secondary sexual characteristics in girls before the age of 8 and in boys before the age of 9. The main reasons for this phenomenon are still not entirely clear. Children with precocious puberty may experience the re-emergence of secondary sexual characteristics, such as breast development in girls or boys, menstruation in girls, testicular growth and development in boys, pubic hair, and a series of other clinical diagnostic symptoms.
