behavior/adrenal

Hi Lisa,
I will agree with Dr Karen. Return of sexual behavior
in males is a sign of adrenal gland disease and likely
to be adrenal carcinoma. The Lupron should help lower
his hormone levels, but I would do surgery if possible. It
will be interesting to see which hormone(s) is elevated in
your boy.
Hope that helps,
Jerry Murray, DVM
