Puberty crisis. please help!?!
Question:
Puberty crisis. please help!?
im 14, male, and i have questions. first of all my voice has not dropped really. its still high. i still only have blond hair on my legs, on my face,chest(which if im correct comes way later) and in my armpits. my penis is almost 4inches when erect and a little over 2 and 1/2 inches when not, but i have developed pubic hair growth and my pubes are like an inch long. im a little over weight and i understand that the penis is longer than it is visually because of the fat, but it could drastically change the length. is there a problem with me and my puberty? could masturbation have caused this? please help answers are appreciated. thank you!
Answers:
If you have a Germanic or Scandinavian heritage you may never get dark hair on your body. My boyfriend is German and Italian and he's 20--still has light brown to blonde hair all over his body and couldn't grow facial hair to save his life aside from some peach fuzz. Regarding the size of your penis, there's nothing to worry about at all. Masturbation doesn't cause it to be bigger or smaller--it's something that continues to grow along with the rest of your body until you're in your early twenties. Even if it remained 5-6 inches long THEN you still have an average penis size. I hate to break down the anatomy but a female isn't going to be able to accommodate a massive penis anyway---we're only 3 1/2 inches deep. So whatever you've heard about size mattering, it doesn't. As for you being overweight, that's also normal at your age. You'll usually thin out around 17 but some things you can do to boost it in the mean time is to walk to school (if you live close by) or walk more in general. Generally cardio (running, walking, jogging, biking, hiking, etc) makes you lose weight whereas lifting weights and going sit ups just makes you bulkier because you gain muscle. If you want to lose weight AND gain muscle you have to do cardio AND toning. As for your voice don't worry about it--that also is something that will change and even if it doesn't change females aren't going to judge you for it.
