My niece is 8 nearly 9 and has had BO since she was about 5. I was talking to my sister this morning and she said that she had noticed her hair was getting greasy quickly and she had some spots on her face! Now too me this sounds like puberty but isnt she too young?
As far as I know she has regular baths and also uses a roll on deodorant so we were wondering if she had some sort of hormone inbalance. Any advice/experience would be greatly appreciated.

puberty apparently starts between the age of 8 and 13. Your niece may be having signs of pre-puberty.
