What causes early development of pubic hair?

Normally, after entering puberty, the bodies of women and men will gradually mature. Both men and women will begin to grow hair in their private parts. However, it is normal for pubic hair to grow in private parts. Everyone has to go through this stage, but some people's pubic hair grows earlier than normal people. In this case, parents are usually very worried. What is the reason for early pubic hair development?

What is the cause of premature pubic hair development?

Factor 1: Excessive light exposure is one of the important reasons for inducing precocious puberty in children, because light can affect the normal functioning of the pineal gland, an endocrine organ in the brain. One of the functions of the pineal gland is to secrete a large amount of melatonin when the human body enters a sleep state at night. This hormone is most secreted from 11 pm to the early morning of the next day, and stops being secreted after dawn when there is light.

Factor 2: The incidence of precocious puberty in children is increasing year by year, but less than 10% of them are caused by disease. 90% of children suffer from precocious puberty due to external factors, among which excessive light stimulation should be taken seriously, especially when children sleep at night. Unless there are special circumstances, it is best not to turn on the lights and try to ensure adequate sleep. In addition, children should avoid prolonged exposure to light from computer screens to prevent precocious puberty in children.

Factor 3: Normally, girls develop pubic hair several months after their breasts develop, while boys develop pubic hair several months after their penis and testicles develop. Pubic hair can appear at any age in precocious puberty, and is more common in girls than in boys. Pubic hair is minimal and sometimes there is axillary hair, but other sexual characteristics develop normally. Most of the cases are caused by eating children's health foods containing hormones.

What to do if pubic hair develops early and how to prevent it?

Parents should also pay attention to their children's eating habits in daily life. They should try to take their children out to eat chicken, duck, fish, pork, beef, mutton, etc. that are fed with hormone feeds. It is not that eating meat is not recommended. If you want to eat it, you should go to the regular market to buy it, because it has been strictly inspected, so you can eat it with confidence! Because eating meat with hormones may lead to premature development of pubic hair!

Parents and friends should not abuse some so-called nutritional supplements for their children. If the child is really lacking in trace elements, you can go to the hospital for a check-up first (generally, children will not lack any trace elements!) Then decide to give the child some nutritional supplements or health care products! Because those so-called nutritional supplements may also cause premature development of pubic hair!

Parents should also communicate more with their children and pay more attention to them. See if the child has the second symptom, is it too early? Some children feel that their pubic hair has developed early, but they dare not tell their parents. If it is really precocious, wouldn’t it delay the best time for treatment?
