What Causes Spotting In 9 And Half Year Old?
My 91/2 year old was spotting blood yesterday and I dont know if its her period or kidney infection or something. She is on ADHD medication and I was told that it could cause her to go into early puberty. She has been breaking out and real irritable for the last few months.

Hi,
By what you describe I feel that probably she is going into a premature menarche.
I suggest that you get in touch with a pediatric endocrinologist and evaluate her hormonally.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Sumanth Amperayani, Pediatrician, Pulmonology
