Comprehensive early puberty screening package for girls

Don't feel self-conscious or hesitate. If you notice any signs of early puberty or other suspicious abnormal signs, please take your child to a Pediatric Endocrinologist for examination, consultation, and diagnosis as soon as possible. Timely intervention can make a significant difference for your child.

Early puberty is no longer an unfamiliar term for many parents, as this condition is becoming increasingly common.

Early puberty is defined as:

  • In girls: The appearance of sexual characteristics before the age of 8, especially menstruation before the age of 10.
  • In boys: Physical development and the appearance of sexual characteristics before the age of 9.

Previously, the frequency of early puberty was about 2%, meaning that for every 100 children, 2 experienced early puberty. Today, the number of children with early puberty has increased significantly and varies depending on ethnicity.

Early puberty does not threaten life, but it significantly affects children's stature, psychology, and behavior:

  • Reduced adult height: A reduction of 20-25cm in final adult height. If early puberty is not detected and treated, the average adult height is around 152cm for males and 156cm for females.
  • Psychological disorders in children: Children feel self-conscious about physical differences compared to their peers and lack the ability to take care of themselves during menstruation.
  • Increased risk of sexual abuse: The blossoming and development of an adult-like body in a still-immature mind.
