       what is Precocious Puberty?

       Puberty is when kids develop physically and emotionally into
       young men and women. Usually, this starts to happen about 7 to 8
       years of age in girls (the average age is about 10) and 9 years
       of age for boys (the average age is about 11). But what if a
       younger child, for example, a 5-year-old girl begins showing the
       signs of puberty? How would it affect her? Puberty before the
       age 7 or 8 in girls and age 9 in boys can be physically and
       emotionally difficult and is sometimes the sign of a health
       problem.
       Signs of Precocious Puberty
       In girls, the telltale signs of precocious puberty include any
       of the following before 7 or 8 years of age:
       •
       •
       •
       •
       •
       •
       In boys, the signs of precocious puberty before 9 years of age
       include:
       •
       •
       •
       •
       •
       •
       Many kids who show some of the early signs of puberty have
       what's known as "partial" precocious puberty. Some girls,
       usually beginning between the ages of 6 months and 3 years, may
       show breast development that later disappears or may last
       without other physical changes of puberty. Similarly, some girls
       and boys may have early growth of pubic and/or underarm hair
       that isn't related to other changes in sexual development. Kids
       with "partial" precocious puberty may need to see their doctor
       to rule out "true" precocious puberty or other health problems.
       But most need no treatment and usually will show the other
       expected signs of puberty at the usual age.
