possibly. I know some studies suggest that all the chemicals in our hygiene products also play a role in artificial, early puberty.

It seems more likely to be the hormones fed to the chickens. Plastics, pesticides and the herbicides used in crop production and harvest co-ordination have all been implicated also. It is possible that it is a synergistic effect from them all working together.

No.
The early onset of puberty is much more likely due to the increased consumption of protein.

Cows are fed extra hormones,and many different things are added in milk and red meat.

It is a possibility, but the general increase in nutrition probably plays just as important a role.
