My 9 year old daughter is leaking fluid?

Question

I am not sure if this is Pre Puberty, any moms with this similar situation? She has been leaking like a goopy, whitish, yellowish, fluid, looks like urine but a thicker consistency and she says that it doesn't burn? I am wondering if it is the beginning of her menestral cycle, she has been very emotional for over 1 month and I mentioned to my spouse that she could be starting. He is in denial and told me to call the Dr. to see if they could give her something to stop it. I told him that he was nuts. She said she changed her undies like 3 times in one day, so I looked at them and sure enough each one was the same. So I am so confused because she is so young.

Answer 1

It sounds like your little girl is growing up and no,there is nothing that can stop mother nature.If it continues for more than a week ,I would consult with a doctor because if it is an infection then she could get worse.You also need to keep in mind that children like to explore their bodies.It could very well be that she has tried to shoove something in there which could cause this also.I have worked in the er at the hospital in the past and had little girls to come in that was exploring with crayons and got the crayon stuck in there.Yes it sounds sick but it is not unusual for this to happen to a young child,it happens regular.

good luck and i am sure everything is okay but keep an eye on it for a week or so and consult with a doctor if it gets worse.

Answer 2

The average age for the start of puberty is about age 10, with first menstruation on average at age 12, although two years either way is still normal.

Answer 3

I would take her to the doctor. Not to "stop it" but to make sure everything is ok. Maybe she has an infection and she needs medication...or maybe she is starting to go through puberty.

Make an appt with a gyn at your clinic...bring in her undies and find out whats going on...

Answer 4

well it could be something as simple as discharge..but at 9 years old it may be a little young to start that, she could have some sort of infection without any of the symptoms...it couldn't hurt just to take her and get looked at...maybe it is normal for her..but it's hard to tell without a professional checking her out.

Answer 7

sounds like she has a yeast infection. she probably got it from not wiping right. i would by some wipeys and have her start wiping with those for a while untill you can take her to the doctor for some meds.

I dought it is her period.

Ahhhh, ya know, little kids can get yeast infections from moist towels, I bet it is just that maybe. Your gonna get this a lot, but call her doc!
