Newborn girls can grow breasts, there are bleeding from the genital tract. This is due to the arrival of female hormones (estrogen) levels, which are obtained from the mother. This phenomenon is normal and soon extends itself.
Girls up to 2 years there may be so-called adhesions (fusion of the labia minora). There are difficulties with urination, genital tract is easily infected.
Causes adhesions is unclear. But doctors have learned to deal with them with the help of therapeutic treatments and only rarely resorted to operational.
