7 1/2 yr old daughter has strong bo under arms and i just noticed hairs growing there. it seems young for puberty. should i be worried?

Not necessarily: These findings are triggered by adrenal hormones that may emerge years before puberty.Enlargement of one or both nipples is the most visible sign of the first sign of female puberty. Your doc can investigate the issue by comparing growth pattern and assessing bone maturity if needed. Early puberty would be marked by an advanced bone maturity and accelerated rate of growth.
