delayed late puberty
Posted: 03-13-08 02:07am

im 18 and im wondering if im going through late puberty/if i should see a doctor. I do have hair on my penis and a little bit under my arms, but other than that, im completely bare. my voice has gotten really low, and i have grown a decent amount, but this lack of hair anywhere concerns me.

Maybe you're just not naturally hairy. I'm 22 and am not that hairy besides the usual areas but more and more chest hair seems to appear every year. Besides the immediate pubic areas, body hair may start to appear later on in life, into your thirties. I wouldn't be too upset anyway. A lot of people like a body that isn't too hairy.

The amount of body hair you develop is hereditary. Some people are just prone to more hair. Not much you can do about genetics.
