Hi, im a 14 year old boy and i havent started puberty yet, i have noticed i am starting to get a small amount of hair around my penis but it is very small, i can also ejaculate and my penis is quite small, is there something wrong with me?
Hi John, please don't worry - you are perfectly normal. Boys mature at different ages, and although 14 is later than most I'm sure that things will start happening very soon. It is common for development to follow that of your dad, so if you can talk to your father about puberty you may find that he was a late developer also. If things haven't started developing within the next 6 months or so it may be worth speaking with your doctor just to make sure that your hormone levels are as expected. All the best.
JB is correct John. Puberty can be as early as 9 or 10, or as late as 15 or 16. Pubic hair comes early in the process as does the production of precum, so you have begun puberty. The growth spurt follows, from the size of your penis, to the increase in muscle mass, increase in height, darkening of body hair, deepening of your voice etc. That doesn't help at the moment when your comparing yourself with others of your age, but in a year from now you'll be looking back as a changed 'young man'
