Hard to say!: You do not say how old your son is. Do get him checked. You might be interested to know that South American children on cattle ranches where the feed had added hormones were found to have precocious puberty (both boys and girls). Good reason to avoid hormones and antibiotics in meat, dairy, eggs! Have your child checked by his doctor to see if his symptoms are concerning or normal.
