Sexual development, including enlargement of the penis, growth acceleration, and growth of pubic hair without an increase in the size[FONT=arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif] of his testes, occurred in a 21 month-old boy over a period of several months. The sexual development was caused by dermal exposure to a hydrocortisone cream, prescribed for eczema, which was contaminated by testosterone. After use of the cream was discontinued, sexual development ceased.[/FONT]

Makes you wonder what else kids are getting exposed to chemically.
