Everyone goes through puberty at different times in their life. Just because you haven't reached puberty yet, doesn't mean you haven't. It also starts differently than others two. I'm guessing what you want to experience is an erection? Your body might be physically ready for that to happen yet. I, as a female, didn't hit puberty until I was 11, while other girlfriends of mine had started at around 8 or 9 years old.

When you begin going through puberty, your voice will begin changing...hair will grow in places that it wasn't growing before (underarms, and pubic hair for one). You will experience all of these things, you'll just have to be patient. There is nothing wrong with you, I promise.

Hi Tristen,

Everybody hits puberty at a different age. Boys tend to mature a bit slower than girls do, so while some girls may start when they're 8, some boys might not start until they're 12-15 years old. In that respect, you're still on the younger end of the spectrum. Like Shannon said, there is nothing wrong with you. You will begin to notice changes in your body at some point, like facial and pubic hair and a deeper voice. But remember that these things don't happen overnight. They do take time, so try not get frustrated. They will happen, I promise you.

Take care!

Like everyone else has said, not everyone goes through puberty at the same time, I went through it at 12, my friend just went through it and he's 14. Don't worry one bit, you're not done growing just yet


When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

Boys' penises don't grow much from childhood to puberty. It's typical for a boy who has not started puberty yet to have a penis the same size as a younger brother. Nothing wrong there. You just haven't started puberty yet. It will happen. You might mention something to your doctor if it doesn't start happening soon. There's a hormone shot they can give to start it happening.


What just happened?

You are perfectly normal. At your age, everyone is starting puberty at different rates and times, but believe me, it's going to happen eventually. You will just be like most when puberty starts; curious and learning. I started puberty at the young age of 10 years old. Just because you feel as if puberty hasn't started for you that everyone else has. It's all a part of growing up. =)

Also note: As luck would have it, the penis is the last part of your body to go through puberty.

What Justin means is that your penis is the last part of your body to go through puberty. Everything else will happen first, as in your voice will begin to change and you will start growing hair in places it normally wasn't before, like your underarms, chest, back, face, and pubic areas. I'm no expert on male puberty, but I knew that much. Like everyone, including myself has said, puberty is different for everyone. You are perfectly and completely normal.
