Hi there! Thank you for contacting us. With what you are describing may be due to an elevation in testosterone. Even females have testosterone, and it's to a lesser amount than in the males. I would take her to the pediatrician and ask to test for testosterone levels. I hope that helps. Thank you for contacting us.
