Advance bone age.

My child is almost 7 years old, will turn 7 in November. She is 48 lbs & 46 inches.
She has bone age of 10 years old, early breast buds, and odor under her arm when the weather is hot.
Her doctor right now just want to see her every 6 months, saying that she does not progress too rapidly. I don't know is there any thing else that I can ask the dr. to do, should my daughter have treatment (lupor?), or should  i have 2 nd opinion.
Also, will she be short? Thank you.

Then she is waiting to see what has happened in 6 months ,as I say a second opinion wouldn't hurt when you are given no information ..some research may help there is much online about bone age ,tests and even a chart of bone growtth

The Dr. did not suggest any of those, I asked her should my child have Lupor, or additional test, but she doesn't want to do any thing.

Have they suggested a stim test or an MRI.... did he suggest Lupor..he may be being cautious but in my opinion a 2nd opinion never hurts
