Will precocious puberty be passed on to the next generation?

Children nowadays are exposed to more knowledge, and many foods contain hormones and other substances, which can easily increase the secretion and release of their gonadotropin-releasing hormone, leading to precocious puberty. But some people have questions: In addition to external factors, could precocious puberty be caused by genetics? I believe many people don’t know much about this. Now let me tell you what factors cause precocious puberty.

1. Genetics: Puberty has a significant genetic tendency, including precocious puberty and delayed puberty. If the mother has her first menstruation early, her daughter will generally also have an early onset age. Moreover, mutations in certain genes have been found in some families with precocious puberty.

2. Ovarian development has a certain regularity. The number of eggs a woman has in her lifetime is fixed, and her fertility lasts only 30 to 40 years. If the ovaries begin to develop and ovulate so early, the ovaries will have problems with premature aging in the future.

3. The early appearance of sexual characteristics is often accompanied by accelerated bone growth, which temporarily makes the child appear to grow faster and taller than other children of the same age. However, due to the early fusion of their epiphyses, their final height is often shorter than normal people, which is not conducive to the child's normal development.

4. It will have a great impact on the child’s entire life growth path. For example, it will make the child feel very inferior. Precocious puberty seriously affects children's physical and mental health. Due to early puberty and the early appearance of sexual characteristics, girls often develop breasts and even start menstruating when they are still in elementary school. At this time, the children's intelligence and sexual psychology are not yet mature, and they cannot take care of themselves completely, which can easily lead to various problems. Moreover, children with precocious puberty may feel fear and anxiety due to their different body shape from their peers, which may affect their normal life and study, and thus cause mental and care burdens for their parents.

I believe everyone now knows that precocious puberty is caused by genetic factors, but there is no need to worry too much. If we can discover our own precocious puberty in time, we can use medication and other methods to treat precocious puberty. In addition, we must also prevent children from eating foods that contain too many hormones to ensure their health.
