Parents know the symptoms of precocious puberty in girls well, but have little proper understanding of the symptoms of precocious puberty in boys, or simply take the child’s hazy sexual awareness as precocious puberty. The most direct consequence is the lack of height, so remind the parents of boys that they must pay attention to the precociousness of boys. And these 6 parents are all parents of boys. They all said that they usually did not pay attention to whether their children are precocious. When the parents found out that the boy had precocious puberty, it was too late to remedy the situation. Parents should pay more attention to the child’s sexual development According to the general rule, girls 10 to 12 years old, boys 12 to 14 years old, belong to the normal period of sexual development. Before the developmental period, the child’s annual growth of 5 to 7 cm is normal, while after the development will grow 8 to 9 cm per year. The entire pubertal development process for girls generally takes 1.5 to 6 years, with an average of 4 years. For boys, the whole process of sexual development takes more than 5 years. Precocious puberty is defined as the appearance of secondary sexual characteristics before the age of 8 for girls and 9 for boys. The main manifestations are breast development in girls before the age of 8 and testicular enlargement in boys before the age of 9, which are the first clinical manifestations of precocious puberty. The most direct danger of precocious puberty is the lack of height. This is because precocious puberty in children is accompanied by accelerated height and weight growth, which eventually leads to rapid skeletal maturation and early closure. As a result, the child will grow too fast at the beginning of the disease, but will be short in height when he or she reaches adulthood. In addition, if precocious sexual development occurs, it will also cause harm to the child’s psychological growth, which will bring great confusion to the child and will create a feeling of difficulty and discomfort. The early sexual development will lead to a simultaneous increase in the level of sex hormones, and the child will have a sexual psychology and sexual impulses that are not appropriate for his or her age, which is not conducive to the healthy physical and mental development of the child. The first manifestation of precocious puberty in boys is the enlargement of testicles, which is more hidden and not easy to find, and when the beard and throat knot grow, it is already in the late stage. Parents should usually pay more attention to their children, try to do early detection, early intervention, early treatment of precocious children. Experts remind parents of boys to pay attention to whether the boy’s testicles are enlarged and whether pubic hair has grown. You can have your father accompany your child to bathe and swim more often, taking the opportunity to be able to observe. In addition to consciously observe whether the boy has a protruding throat knot and also judge from the height: precocious puberty will grow fiercely. Central precocious puberty is true precocious puberty, and active interventions must be taken. It is especially important to note that 80% of boys suffer from this type of precocious puberty due to the presence of organic lesions, most commonly intracranial tumors, which can manifest as enlarged testicles, growing throat nodes and beards. This is why parents of boys need to be more attentive.
When precocious puberty is diagnosed, it is important to identify the cause. And although peripheral precocious puberty is not true precocious puberty, it can easily develop into central precocious puberty if there is no active intervention.
