did they do a bone age on your son?  If not, one needs to be done.  Is your son overweight?  sometimes high insulin levels can stimulate androgens to produce hair.  If he is not overweight and you feel his testicles have gotten bigger, and he has gotten more axillary hair and pubic hair then you need to go to an Endocrinologist asap.
