my 6 month old baby has pubic hair, it seems like she has hormones problems. The hormones which help fight against infection and stress are low. There is a link with her kidney. I have to go to the doctor shortly but i wanna learn more about it before. Thank u
Good morning.a 6-month-old, with signs of puberty setting in indicates as you correctly said that there is a hormone problem ----there is a gland just above the kidney that is called supra renal, and it produces a hormone called steroid which help in stress ---if these steroids are not produced sufficiently the rest of the gland that produces the sex hormones gets a little bigger and the sex hormone level causes this pubic hair growth ----imaging with CT, and MRI and hormone levels have to be done and child may have to be hospitalized for some days initially till the hormone levels are studied at baseline and with stimulation. Replacement therapy may have to be initiated.
