Something wrong with me?

[area51]

Hi there guys,
I'm new to this forum as you can see. I'm 18 years and 7 months old and stand at 5ft8" and weigh about 187 pounds. I've manage to lose a bit of my fat for the past 3 - 4 months. I weigh 205 pounds 3 - 4 months ago, I'm slowly cutting down on weight and check my diet.

Ok, here's the problem. I started puberty at around 14 years old and started to grow small but visible pubes and able to ejaculate, I grew taller at around mid 15, and at age 16, my voice started to deepen and from then till now, everything is almost done, I just started shaving my facial hair about 6 months ago, which is about 18 years and 1 month old, my armpit hair is not that hairy. I'm a pretty hairy guy, lots of pubes and quite hairy for my body.

My package measure about 2" flaccid and 5.2" erect. Judging from all that information, can I be considered a late-bloomer? My testicles are about size 8 - 10 in the Orchidometer.
Is there anything wrong with my testicles and will I still have any development?
Is there anything wrong with the levels of testosterone as I heard that fat absorbs it and somehow converts it into estrogen, thus making me a fairly slow developer? I know that the size of the testicles is linked to the levels of testosterone, someone please correct me if I'm wrong please.

If you've been watching and noting all these changes this closely all this time, I think you're spending way too much time thinking about this!

You are who you are, your sizing sounds within the normal range, maybe it'll continue to grow (puberty doesn't end until the early twenties), but if you don't, it'll still be acceptable and fine. And, i'm not sure about the 'fat into estrogen' thing, nor have I heard about estrogen effecting testicle size. If you have all the normal male secondary sexual characterisitics (which you do), then your testicles are working fine, regardless of their size.

So, does it mean that if the size of my testicles remain the same after my puberty, I wouldn't face any fertility problems? Cause I did some researching about it and found out that the average size of an adult testicle is 1.5" in length and 1" wide.

Listen, you're worrying too much about yourself! If your body has developed, if you've changed from when you were a little kid, then regardless of their size, your testicles are working just fine. If they can make the stuff that leads to physical development that you can see, then they're making the stuff (like sperm) that you cannot see. So, yes, you probably won't have fertility probs. because of their size. They sound like they're working as they should.

'Somewhat' eased your concerns!?! C'mon! You're tough! LOL!

You're okay, really. Go out and enjoy the day.

Ok you are a late bloomer, but its fine! Youve grown and youre normal.

[RaisingSand]

I think you're doing what I do, which is overthinking things and getting yourself into a bit of a panic. XD
It sounds like you were a bit of a late bloomer than most, considering the age you were when you started puberty and when everything started to happen, but as for your "package" and all that, from what I've read and heard, you sound pretty normal/average to me.
Oh yeah, and guys don't stop fully growing until about 20 (citation needed?), so you just have another growth spurt before then, who knows? :)

Yeah, but he said my response was only 'somewhat' helpful! And I thought I nailed this one! *sniffle*

Thanks for all your replies. I've gotten over it.

Ok i'm pretty sure that Sam nailed this one anyway but as another sam i thought add a bit :D


its natural and normal to worry but i'm afraid you are worrying too much its quite obvious to see with the amount of detail you have gone into. I am a late developer and i know what its like and from what you've described i would assume that you are not attall late you and actually just normal
