Pediatric Endocrinologist Question

[Frosty322]

Hi, I have a 2 year old little girl who has had pubic hair and slight breast tissue for about a year now. We have taken her to the pediatric endocrinologist and have had blood tests, bone age tests, ultrasounds done. All have come back ok. She has now developed under arm odor. What could be the cause of this?

I would still keep asking questions as if there is treatment available at this age you may want to consider it once you know the facts ..Possibly as she gets older they may be able to find out more .

[Frosty322]

Yes, I have read about this as well but the tests are all coming back ok...

[Frosty322]

No, no access to any pills or creams...good question though. We have more questions than answers at this point.

Is she able to get into anyone's estrogen pills or cream?  Like, is there some at Grandma's that she might be eating?

It could be precocious Puberty but your Doctor would have told you ..I have copied this ..Precocious Puberty (Early Puberty)

Early puberty is also called precocious puberty. Puberty is considered early in girls before the age of 8 and in boys before the age of 9. Most children with early puberty grow fast at first, but finish growing before reaching their expected adult height.

If not treated, most boys will not grow taller than 5 feet 2 inches and girls often do not grow taller than 5 feet.
