Breast Development (Thelarche). The first visible evidence of puberty in girls is a nickel-sized lump under one or both nipples. Breast buds, as these are called, typically occur around age nine or ten, although they may occur much earlier, or somewhat later.n a study of seventeen thousand girls, it was concluded that girls do not need to be evaluated for precocious puberty unless they are Caucasian girls showing breast development before age seven or African American girls with breast development before age six.
Fibroid symptoms to watch for. The tumors may develop at any point during a woman's childbearing years, but tend to appear when she's in her mid- to late-30s and 40s, says Dr. Ascher-Walsh. Because fibroids grow in the uterine wall, the most common symptoms are irregular bleeding and heavy periods. For many women, fibroids remain small and slow-growing. But when they do grow larger, they can cause symptoms related to their size. For example, you might experience pressure in your abdomen, or feel like you have a mass in your pelvis, or that you're in the early stages of a pregnancy, says Dr. Ascher-Walsh.
