    Obesity is a big factor. Control him at an early age.

    Hi,

    The best approach to your concern is to test his hormone levels.

    One good evidence of hormone activity is the teenage voice change, pubic, facial hair and an increase in muscle tone.

    Obesity is a factor, but he needs to be weighted, and compare his age and height with if current weight to determine obesity. If he is diagnosed with obesity, than the next step is to assess his hormones, such as thyroid hormones. Once all of this is cleared out, depending on the results THEN a choice is taken, if its hormonal, than he will be treated for such, if its a nutritional problem, then diet + excercise will be the trick, being the DIET THE MOST IMPORTANT.

    Hugs!!
