excessive hair growth/Testosterone?

[Guest guest]

My understanding of the Geiers' hypothesis is that these kids produce a

normal amount of testosterone, but that it is not going through the natural

cycle & exiting because it is binding with the mercury-therefore a buildup.

May I ask your son's age and what his testosterone level was on the testing?

I think it would be interesting for us to " compare notes " . My son is similar

in his interest in " cute girls " - which is pretty much all girls ages 3-15.

My husband & older son think it's cute & funny now, but when he's 12 or 13,

I don't think it will be too cute, eh?

We have way too much testosterone here; and 2 of 3 of us are girls.

I think from a recent post it is part of the reason why certain

people are more affected by mercury and can't excrete it as well as

others. We have congenital adrenal hyperplasia (early development,

excess testosterone) in our family, a rare Beta enzyme type, and

several other genetic endocrine diseases. I am not sure if the

theory is that because of excess testosterone, mercury is more

likely to cause problems, or that mercury causes the hormonal

imbalances...does anyone know?

My son's is especially high, even for a boy. The one thing I always

knew about him, besides that he had autism, was that he was

definitely heterosexual. He was showing off for girls in the park

by age 2, when he couldn't do anything else really, which always

blew me away; and only the older, more attractive ones - he's quite

selective. How did someone with NO social skills pick that up, and

know how to show off for girls???

It's kind of sweet actually that he can be such a boy when he's so

delayed; like his communication skills are not there really, but his

manhood is intact.
