Sexual precocity is a developmental abnormality. It manifests as early onset of puberty characteristics. Girls begin breast development before the age of 8 and menstruate before the age of 10; Before the age of 10 years, boys develop testicular and penile enlargement, which is characterized by precocious puberty.
Does diet promote precocious puberty in children?
Cases of precocious puberty in children are not uncommon. Why on earth does precocious puberty occur? It is understood that diet is also a major reason for children's precocious puberty. Eating too much fried chicken out of season fruit, or taking a large amount of Tonic Diet will have the effect of "accelerating ripening". Children's precocious puberty poses a great danger. I hope that parents can correctly understand prevention knowledge and ensure the healthy growth of their children.
Major tonic foods that can be used as medicine include cordyceps sinensis, ginseng, dried longan, dried litchi, astragalus, and ginseng. Traditional Chinese medicine points out that the more tonic Tonic Diet is, the easier it is to change the normal endocrine environment of children, causing imbalance in their physical and mental development.
"The vast majority of poultry sold on the market today, especially the neck, are fed with feed mixed with rapid growth agents. The residues of" ripening promoting agents "in poultry meat are mainly concentrated in the glands in the head and neck of poultry. Therefore, eating the neck of chickens, ducks, and geese becomes a high-risk behavior of" promoting early ripening. "".
"Out of season vegetables and fruits, strawberries, grapes, watermelons, tomatoes, etc. in winter, and pears, apples, oranges, and peaches that come on sale early in late spring are almost all out of season or mature early with the help of" ripening promoters ". It is important to avoid giving them to young children.".
Deep-fried foods, especially fried chicken, French fries, and potato chips, can turn excessive calories into excess fat in children's bodies, causing endocrine disorders, leading to sexual precocity; Moreover, after repeated heating and use, high temperature causes oxidative denaturation of edible oil, which is also one of the reasons for causing "sexual precocity". Children who visit foreign fast food more than twice a week and often consume fried and puffed foods are 2.5 times more likely to have "precocious puberty" than ordinary children.
Sexual precocity can cause harm to children in two aspects, which can easily lead to early love and early pregnancy in psychological aspects; In terms of physiology, it directly affects the height of a child as an adult!
Girls with precocious puberty are prone to ovarian cancer
The onset time of ovarian cancer exists in women of all ages. The older the person, or the younger the child, the less likely it is to be cured. In contrast, entering puberty, the age under 20, is the most easily curable age group.
Ovarian cancer in children is easily overlooked. At a young age, parents will not suspect the cause of ovarian cancer. "There are no special symptoms of ovarian cancer, but when children develop secondary sexual characteristics, parents should be alert to the possibility of ovarian cancer in girls." Experts say that girls entering puberty are more likely to be overlooked during their menstrual period when vaginal bleeding occurs. Abnormal uterine bleeding should not be easily classified as menstrual disorders, and should be examined in a hospital as soon as possible. "Once a lump can be felt in the abdomen, ovarian cancer begins to worsen and is difficult to treat."
Prevention of sexual precocity
Generally speaking, it is impossible to prevent true or false precocious puberty caused by secondary hypothalamic pituitary gonadal tumors.
Sexual precocity caused by exogenous estrogen or androgen intake can be completely prevented. Parents should strictly manage the medicines in their homes, keep them out of reach, and educate their children not to eat food given by strangers or unknown foods to avoid causing harm to them.
1. Pay attention to scientific diet
Among some sexual precocious puberty, the most common occurrence is simple early breast development in women. These patients often have a history of long-term intake of supplements, long-term consumption of high protein, especially high animal protein diets, and some have obesity caused by overeating. The onset of puberty occurs when a child's weight reaches a certain level or the concentration of leptin in the blood reaches a certain amount.
2. Pay attention to the harm of environmental hormones to human body
Pollution of rivers, lakes, seas, or air, the widespread use of cosmetics, detergents, and other substances, as well as the use of feed and fertilizer for animals and plants that are still raised or cultivated, can cause imbalances in the ecological balance of the planet, affecting human health, including reproductive dysfunction, sexual precocity or low sexual function, infertility, and so on.
Prevention of precocious puberty should be carried out in various ways, including raising awareness among families, parents, and society. Do not abuse tonic drugs for children, pay attention to balanced nutrition in diet, avoid partial or overeating, and avoid exposure to unhealthy books, magazines, movies, and television to avoid affecting children's physical and mental health. These are comprehensive measures to prevent premature puberty. Some genetic factors or genetic mutations are difficult to predict and prevent.
