Early Pubesent Symptoms
Posted: 09-03-07 05:25am

My 8 year old daughter is showing signs of puberty. Should I be worried?
Could her ADHD meds be to blame?

I wouldnt worry about. You mite want to bring it up with her doctor just to be safe, let hom/her know about your concerns. I have many friends that started puberty around 8. My brothers girl friend started her period when she was 7.

Girls are going through pubery sooner and sooner these days; there are nine year olds with a period!

Talk to her doctor about these signs. I'm sure they're normal but now is a good time to start monitoring things and preparing your daughter for full-blown puberty.
