Question
Hello doctor, my daughter is almost 7 years old this year. I discovered that her breasts are clearly developing, both breasts are enlarged and unevenly developed, and breast tissue is palpable. So does my baby have early puberty? Is there anything I can do to stop my child's precocious puberty?
I would like to thank you.

Hello.
Don't know in addition to the problem of uneven breast development, does your child have pubic hair growth, armpit hair, change the shape of the external genitalia?
If based on the information you share, it can be seen that your child is having early puberty in children. However, the possibility of other diseases cannot be excluded. What you need to do now is take your child to the hospital for check-up, or you can also register for pre-puberty screening at a Vinmec Health System hospital across the country. When fully informed, the doctor will advise and give the most appropriate treatment for your child's health condition.
Thank you for sending your question to Vinmec. Best regards!
