Early axillary hair

[pediRN]

My 6 1/2 year old girl has quite a patch of longer, darker axillary hair.  Doesn't have pubic hair or breast development... She has always been tall for her age--but both parents are too (5'10" & 6'3").  I didn't really link this until reading up a bit, but she started having strong sweat odor at about 5 y.o.  She also has a sleep disorder that we finally saw a pediatric sleep specialist for-- now she uses a blue spectrum light every morning.  Occasionally, we use Rozerem 8mg (prescribed by the peds sleep specialist) --but only occasionally when we are unable to do her light therapy.  Is there any connection between sleep disorders & early adrenarche?  And is this adrenarche when it is only her axillary area involved?  I discussed the early axillary hair (there was only one at the time) with her pediatrician at ther six y.o. check-up.  Since she didn't have any pubic hair or breast development, she didn't think there was reason for concern.  Since then the hair growth & numbers have acellerated....Should I be concerned?  I'm going to call her pediatrician too, but wondering if there is any possible relationship with the sleep issues & this early hair growth, etc.
Thanks for you opinion!

She has a circadian rhythm disorder & is treated quite effectively with Blue Light Therapy.  The only time we use the Rozerem is when it is impossible/ non- practical to use her light therapy.  I'm trying to get back in touch with the Pediatric sleep specialist to re-check the connection & possibilites of the SE of the Rozerem...

i was just wondering what kind of sleep disorder does she have?

could it be a  side effect of the Rozerem
