You're a late bloomer

There is nothing like late blooming in this case, stop the confusion.


If he doesn't do anything about it, he'll never reach puberty. Ever!

My dad was once sick (4years back), he was admitted at lasuth and during the time i was with him there, i tried getting medical help but it was a very regrettable experience. After using hours and days at family clinic (i get there by 7 and see doctor by 11 or 12), I was referred to their endocrine section. But the problem was first time i visit the endocrine cos they open only Tuesday and Thursday i met a doctor who examined me (in front of students o) and asked me to run some tests which amount to 45k (6 tests). I did the tests and next appointment was two weeks later. Next time i went there with the tests, i met another doctor who just browsed through my file and results and instead of prescribing drug or say u go through this treatment he wrote another test which was 65k (2 tests). I did this too and was asked to come again in 2 weeks almost 120k on test alone. Believe me you next time i went again they were on strike and the lady at the records gave me a month appointment, after the strike i went and when i will see doctor again, it was not any of the first 2 doctors �. Although this was an elderly woman, asked me questions, went through my files, checked first test results and second one, brought out one thing like big beads like this and checked my throat. After all those guess what? She asked me to go for another test again. The price of this was 145k! I was broke already i spent saving for house rent on inconclusive tests and I'm asked to go for a new one. I just kept crying in the bus till i got home cos i feel swindled and punished for what is not my fault. I tore the hospital card and never went back there. Because if the tests were that expensive how much with the treatment be? Reason I'm trying to see if i can see a private hospital doctor that will help me out. I almost ended my life after my experience at lasuth i don't if luth won't be same old story.

Sorry about your condition.
Please go back there and complete what you started.
You need patience with teaching hospitals as they don't like doing trial and error - administering treatment without appropriate diagnoses.

I understand the monetary aspect but you can look for means to sort that out.

Most of this things depends on how you were fed and with what you were fed while growing up.

That is why it's good to feed kids properly while growing up
it has nothing to do with feeding.it is hormonal

Endocrinologist consult ASAP. You may have an X or Y added to your XY. Maybe a CHROMOSOMAL Abnormality like Klinefelter's syndrome, Kallmanns syndrome or hypogonadism

LUTH
FMC EBUTE METTA
IGBOBI
Check private hospitals with Endo clinics too.

Try FMC, Owo in Ondo State, or their state Teaching Hospital in Akure, if Lagos is not working for you. With all these expenses on tests, you would have gotten an answer, or at least a solid referral.
Good luck.

Please do.

What were they suspecting though??
Ask them and make sure they tell you. Let them write the diagnoses and differentials down and also the reasons for the investigations. After all, you are the one paying for it.

Horerku I remember watching a video about this on YouTube some months back. The guy in the video was 26 and had never experienced puberty too. Even hearing his voice, he sounded like a 13 year old, and just like you he was very tall.

The guy believed that he had Kallmann's syndrome. If your sense of smell is poor in addition to all you've described, you might have that too.

I've linked the video, you can also search for him on YouTube. His name is Brandon Westfall. His current YouTube profile picture shows him with beards. Also, in one of his videos, you can clearly tell that his voice is deeper than before.

You don't have to worry. It is a condition that can be cured, the only thing is that it might be expensive.

You have indeed not yet hit puberty. Visit a reasonable hospital and explain to a doc. I believe there are drugs that can jump start it.

Ok.. i will have to find one hospital be dat

The fact that you grew tall is a sign of puberty, puberty is not just about hair

You really should have gone to get this checked out in your teens - all this unneccessary shyness over obvious medical issues

Please doctors have seen worse
Ask to see a ...urologist I think that should be it (medics should confirm). There's a health section on NL or google those with similar issues
Say its something about your p8nis then tell them your history.
Could be hormonal or chromosomal
Have your testes descended?

Please date biko - dating is not sex so stop avoiding women

Hi all, i have been a guest on NL for a long time but seeing this thread https://www.nairaland.com/6069700/look-too-young-find-it makes me want to come out and share what has been giving me serious headache.

I will be 28 in a month but i have not been able to hit puberty fully. Can count how many strand of hair on my pp, no armpit hair, no facial changes used to be short then i start growing from like 5.7' to 6.5'. No lies it's a very big disgrace when kids that will see my junior brother and bow their heads expect me to call them egbon.


But I have worked on my self esteem, gave myself confidence by reading inspirational books, learnt boxing, build my body, learnt dancing and i can very well say all this have really boost my confidence, i built my confidence by writing job application to jobs i know im over qualified for and intentionally bully the unlucky hr that will interview me �. I am able to read people and give good advices, as a matter of fact, i (despite my baby face) take adult Sunday School at church and I'm able to take my classes like a piece of cake (With God enabling me btw).

Never dated or toast before not cos im scared of being turned down inface i have a lot of babes that really show me emotions but because I'm scared of how the girl will act towards me when she find out my secret and i am gonna keep it that way because i can't really take heartbreak because of something i can't control. I
already have a good paying Job and finances not my problem so this is my only headache but will i still become normal? Have you overcome something like this? Or do you know how i can correct things?

I have been a guest on NL for more than 7 years. Try be a troll first smiley y'all taught me
It might be genetics. I was a late starter. Didn't start menstruating till I was 16.
Maybe you're not just hairy, like me. What matters is that you're fit and strong and healthy. Don't sweat it.
