I just turned 18, and am really nervous about my puberty status. I have some facial, armpit, and pubic hair, but I am still not through puberty. I have little leg hair (but I am getting more, now) and I still have a prepubescent penis. It is still the size of when I was like 10. I am very self conscious and scared that there might be a serious problem. Please help!!
If you have some body hair, then you've entered puberty.

If you are concerned that you still haven't fully developed sex organs, then a trip to the doctor for an exam is in order.

There are treatments with male hormone to boost your development, but it's not like "Gee, I think I want another two inches...I'll go get a shot..."

It's more like "Gee, he hasn't started developing yet, let's give his pituitary and testes a kick in the pants once and see what happens..."

Only your doctor can prescribe this.

Good luck. ;-)
