According to mainland Chinese media reports, on June 7, 2020, a Chinese girl named “Grapefruit” was born. A few months later, the parents discovered that the girl’s weight increased by about 3 kg per month, but the height did not increase. The baby’s face was abnormally swollen and looked like a stone. The same thick, hard black hair grows on the forehead and all over the body, and the growth is slow, the expression is dull and the eyes are dull, similar to the symptoms of “big head doll” caused by milk contaminated dust from the mainland.
By the time the baby was 5 months old, his weight had skyrocketed to 11 kg. The parents went to various hospitals to be examined and all appeared normal. The baby has been drinking breast milk after the birth and the doctor suspects it is due to the hormonal ointment the baby uses, which may be a problem with the baby cream. A nurse told the baby’s parents that four similar cases had previously occurred in the hospital.
According to reports, the baby’s parents used the brand “Ai Yingshu”, “Yifulin Multi-Effect Special Antibacterial Cream” for the baby. They then contacted a team that conducted the product evaluation, “Dad Evaluation”, and asked for help with the test.
“Dad Evaluation” sent this baby cream to the laboratory for analysis in late November last year. The test results showed that it contained around 30mg / kg of hormone (clobetasol propionate) and usually a few tenths of a milligram is already very high. .
Another “Happy Forest” baby cream was also tested. Both products have previously obtained the official license number “(Fujian) Weixiaozhenzi”, and the manual says “Can be used for daily care”.
After the baby’s parents exposed the problem online, the manufacturer warned them and told them to “not be silly in the group.” Subsequently, the manufacturer updated a “zero hormones ad.”
“Dad Evaluation” revealed the test results on January 7. The baby’s father said, “We give the baby poison every day.”

On January 8, the manufacturer involved responded that their product was fine. Parents were suspected of using the short video platform to exaggerate, saying the relevant product had been pulled from shelves and sent to the Health Commission for analysis. The Zhangzhou Municipal Health Commission stated that the manufacturer suspended production, but did not mention the follow-up compensation for affected families.
Some doctors in mainland China said that if the baby cream is used for a long time, it can cause osteoporosis, kidney stones and stunting and precocious puberty in a baby of a few months. It can take years for thick hair to fade. Also, because the baby’s respiratory system is not fully developed, obesity can put the risk of death from breathlessness at any time.
Before 2019, the continental Internet had exposed 6 baby creams that contained hormones. These products claimed to be “natural” and “hormone-free,” but after testing, some products were found to contain a variety of powerful and super-potent hormones.
In 2018, the Jiangsu television station in mainland China reported that after a 40-day-old girl suffered from eczema, her parents used “Ziwa Brand Lithospermum Skin Ointment” for her. The effect was effective in two to three hours, but baby 8 When he was one month old, the child was found to be suffering from hyperglycemia, stones and his face was “puffed up.” This baby cream was found to contain super-potent hormones.
Previously, the “big-headed doll” incident had existed for a long time on the mainland and spread throughout the country, most of it caused by contaminated milk powder. From the 2003 contaminated milk powder incident in Fuyang, Anhui, to the “fake milk powder big-headed baby” incident in Hunan in May 2020, to the hormonal baby cream today, these incidents have been common in the last 20 years.
