kind of worried about puberty...?!


Question: Kind of worried about puberty...?
i'm 13 and i think i've started. what should i expect (other than body hair)? i would prefer not to ask my older brothers/parents. but i'm kind of concerned because it's going at a very slow rate. what should i expect?

Answers:

On the whole, it does go slowly. Sometimes it seems like nothing's happening at all. Other times, growing pains remind you that growth spurts aren't much joy. Nor is having to go shopping for new clothes twice in a few months, bcoz you keep outgrowing them.

In general, you'll get more pubes, penis length will increase; balls get bigger and drop down a bit further; voice start to break and find it's new range (takes 2 - 3 years to settle down, usually), eat like a horse, have acne and crushes, ejaculate, get armpit hair, start to shave your face. Maybe get chest hair as well, depending on your genetics.

Also, you can't speed it up. Having said that, a mate of mine changed dramatically in the space of about six or seven months. One minute his voice was on the verge of breaking; the next it was so deep, I didn't even recognise it when he was on the phone to me...



I've never heard of a guy going through puberty who wasn't worried about growth and development; that's a normal part of life.

And you're right, it is slow----it takes at least five years. There isn't any timetable, sometimes a guy will experience slow and gradual, almost imperceptible growth, and sometimes there are a series of growth spurts---it varies with the individual.

And not all characteristics develop at the same time. You can expect to be in puberty until at least the age of 18, and some guys continue to develop into their early twenties.



Your balls and penis will grow.
You will get lots of hair around (above, next to, and below your penis).
You will start producing semen.
You will get taller.
And the last one I can think of is to start masturbating which is to pleasure yourself by touching your penis. I'm 14 and I'm pretty far into puberty.



It's slower or faster depending on a person. You grow at fastest rate between 16 and 18, and continue to develop until 26.

PS

Don't listen to those animals regarding masturbation, it will make you miserable. I had to learn the hard way.



Hey. You will go through a few changes during puberty:
More body hair
Premature ejaculation
Voice breaking
Growing (including penis). And some others also. And to above masturbation can be a great idea and feels possible sensational! ( just don't take it overboard)
