Описание: What is precocious puberty and why should parents be concerned?
In this insightful video, Professor (Dr) Abhishek Kulkarni, Consultant Pediatric & Adolescent Endocrinologist at SRCC Children’s Hospital, managed by Narayana Health (Haji Ali, Mumbai), sheds light on precocious puberty — a condition where puberty starts too early in children, specifically before age 8 in girls and before age 9 in boys.

Signs of precocious puberty to watch out for

How to distinguish between normal and early development

The emotional impact of early puberty, especially in girls

Why timely diagnosis and treatment by a pediatric endocrinologist is crucial

The importance of early intervention to ensure proper growth and development

Whether you're a parent, guardian, or caregiver, understanding the causes of early puberty and knowing when to seek help is key. With expert insights from Dr. Abhishek Kulkarni, you’ll learn how to support your child through this critical stage.
