So I've been more hungry (hungrier?) lately than I usually am, is that normal. Also I've noticed that my shoulders are broader than they were. And, is it weird that my right arm is a few inches longer than my left? Could this mean a growth spurt is coming, even if I'm 18?

Hmmm, sounds like your body is making some seemingly unatural rapid growth spurts. Sound like your in puberty bro, it's messed up. Not sure about the arm length thing, but wouldnt surprise me tbh

You are a guy and we eat more at our age. Also maybe you have been more active. I think we all have body parts that are slightly different. My feet are almost 1 shoe size different. Never measured my arms or legs. Your arm doesn't bother you does it?

I find it humorous. Like I'll stand in front of a mirror and flop my arms around. When no one is near of course. My feet are kinda like that too.

If you look close enough I think you'd be able to find a measurable difference between your ears to. Not only in size, but distance from some known point on your body

I've had that happened to my legs, a whole inch difference at the least. Made me lamp' is probably growth spurts, also at puberty your body is dedicating more food towards all growth.

I was just trying to understand and hope that your arm didn't bother you or anything. Your a good dude and I just care.

It is all really normal.
Especially if you do some weights, your shoulders will become more broad.

You should try do some weights, it'll make your shoulders good.

Dude just because you're now an adult doesn't automatically mean you're done with puberty. It's not uncommon for guys to grow up until they're 21. It just sounds like a growth spurt.

I've heard other people say that you can get growth spurts even late in puberty like when you're 18, and having an increased appetite can indicate that you might be having another growth spurt.

I'm always hungry. Probably because I'm always out. I'm having a growth spurt now as I keep being told!

Yes these types of changes, the ones people don't normally mention, can happen as late as 25. Don't be worried if they haven't happened yet or have only happened a little bit.

Your shoulders probably are changing. As for the hunger, it could or could not be because of a growth spurt. I've been eating a ton lately but I think it's just because I want to grow more so I'm kinda psyching myself out. I haven't gained any weight from it yet which is good. But yeah notice anything yet?

I also haven't gained any weight (I'm stuck at around 107lbs) but I might be psyching myself out too, though I don't think I am. But there's no real way to tell, unfortunately.

I've been told I eat a lot for someone my size, I also don't seem to be able to gain any weight. I've not had any real spurts in growth (yet, although I doubt I will now i'm almost 17), just steady growth since I was 14.
Just good metabolism, I guess.
