The EU banned the administration of hormones to beef cattle (and imported beef) in 1981

They were used as growth promoters. I don't think they have ever been used in dairy cattle. Mother cows have their own milk-producing hormones of course but if these hormones passed through to offspring in the milk, the babies would start growing breasts and lactating (this happens to a tiny extent via the placenta just before birth - newborns are often born with slight breast tissue enlargement that disappears very quickly)
I therefore conclude that milk is not full of hormones.
There can be some female hormones in drinking water due to the contraceptive pill, if the water has been used and re-used many times as it passes along a river system.
I think it is your own granddaughter's hormones that make her prone to spots at this age. Bless her.
