At present, with the development of social economy, the improvement of people’s living standard and the change of living environment, the incidence of precocious puberty in children has been increasing year by year and has become one of the common diseases ranking second in endocrine. In clinical practice, we found that many parents are still in a confused state in terms of understanding precocious puberty, and the following is a brief introduction to some common problems that exist in precocious puberty: 1. Generally speaking, the normal development of girls at the age of 10 weeks, the first manifestation of breast enlargement; boys at the age of 12 weeks, the earliest manifestation of testicular enlargement. If a boy has testicular penis enlargement before the age of 9 weeks, and a girl has breast development before the age of 8 weeks, it means that the child belongs to precocious sexual maturity. However, in daily life, especially for boys, parents may not know how to determine the above-mentioned changes in sexual characteristics. Then try these simple methods below. If your child’s height increases by more than 0.6cm per month, and his appetite improves significantly and the amount of food he eats increases significantly, it means that your child has quietly entered the stage of puberty development. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for consultation and treatment by a pediatrician specializing in growth and development. What are the effects of precocious puberty on children? Early sexual development, especially for girls, because of shyness and other psychological aspects of breast development, makes girls easy to develop low self-esteem, resulting in communication barriers with children of the same age; at the same time, because of the fear of being discovered breast development, girls may have chest hunching behavior, long-term bad posture may affect the normal growth of bones, resulting in changes in body shape; breast development about 2 years to the first menstruation, but The child is young and less able to take care of himself, which increases the burden of care for the family. The opposite is true for boys, as the advantage of height growth that accompanies the sexual development process gives boys more self-confidence and often a position of leadership among their peers. Does that mean that boys don’t need treatment? Actually, no. As sexual development progresses, hormone levels increase, which will promote a surge in size, but when estrogen levels reach a certain level, it will lead to early epiphyseal closure, stopping height growth, shortening the growth period, and eventually lagging behind children of the same age in height instead. Moreover, the incidence of precocious puberty is much higher in girls than in boys. If a male child is affected, he needs to be alert to central parenchymal occupancy, and cranial MRI is essential. Third, do all cases of precocious puberty necessarily need treatment? Since precocious puberty has so many hazards, do all precocious puberty need treatment? The answer is no. Generally speaking, formal treatment of precocious puberty can control the development of sexual characteristics, slow down epiphyseal closure, prolong the growth period and improve the final height. There are various treatment options, which are related to many factors, including the severity of puberty, the combination of short stature, the target height of the parents and the child, and the psychological age of the child. If the child has just started the development of sexual characteristics, or if the sexual characteristics appear early and the bone age is advanced, but the child’s height has found the level required by the bone age in advance, i.e., there is no loss of final height, and his or her psychological age is already more mature, after communicating with the parents, treatment can be withheld or treated with herbs only, but it must be done under the monitoring of a specialist. How to take care of the children with precocious puberty in life? 1. Diet management Diet should be nutritious, with more protein-rich food, such as milk, grass eggs, unpolluted fish and shrimp, etc., and less fatty meat, chocolate, cream and other foods that can easily lead to obesity; food variety should be abundant, with more fresh fruits and vegetables, and no anti-seasonal fruits and vegetables. Do not eat a lot of soy products for a long time. 2.Appropriate exercise Appropriate exercise can promote height growth and reduce the height loss brought about by precocious puberty. After school and before dinner, encourage the children to exercise appropriately, mainly jogging and stair climbing, for about half an hour. It is not recommended to choose the exercise time after dinner or before bedtime. Exercise time should not be too long, because if excessive exercise will also affect the growth. 3, to protect sleep daily to ensure more than 9 hours of high-quality sleep, to maintain a quiet environment, to avoid light pollution caused by night lights and other bad habits. 4, to create a pleasant and relaxed growth environment A happy spirit is conducive to the healthy growth of children. A depressing living environment can cause physical development and mental maturity disorders in children.
