hey, i am 15 with a small(er) penis to the rest of my year so i think.
i am around 3" maybe 3.5"
i cannot masterbate with my full hand only with first couple of fingers :(
i have barly any pubes they're just straight and short with a few tinted black.
my voice has not deepened, i am not growing much. i am really worried. i know i might be a late bloomer but this is taking the piss, i leave school in 1 and a half years, i mean, over 98% have had tehy're main puberty finished by then . not me i'll still be growing a mm a year on my cock!
wtf is the matter with me!" should i go to to docs and get sum hormone tabs or sumit?

No. You shouldn't go to the doctors, because there's nothing wrong.
You ARE in puberty, because you do have pubes. Just give it time, you're just a bit late..
And you may have just started, probably why you voice hasn't deepened; that comes in later. Growing = growth spurt which is also later seeing as you only have a few pubes.
And your penis will grow more now anyway seeing as you must be in puberty now.
If no progress is made, or too little, in about 6, 12 monthes then go see a doc if you want. He can tell you what's happening. Just keep a record of what's happening ;)
Good luck.

is there 2 sides to puberty? physical appearance and mentally, mentally i feel alot stronger and more wiser in some cases. if its only physical, well, i'm kidna fucked. because my mental abiltie has onloy increased within the passed 3 - 6 months. and noticing fine pubes.
bloody hell. i hate puberty. i mean, me and my friend jack off together sometimes and i have such an insecurity i wont do it without being covered in some way, but hes free, he just strips off and masterbates, hes got like, 20 billion pubes and is only one year older than me! i know that everyone is at differnt rates but i mean, theres nothing that stands out physically to say i'm ahead of anyone in one certain area. !

I don't think you develop much mentally in puberty. That might be something else, like more attention at school or whatever but it's good anyway, right?
And hey! Pubes don't come instantly, but once they've started, they grow quicker, before you know it, you'll be as bushy as your friend ;)
Your friend has masturbated with you several times, yes? He probably doesn't mind, see, it doesn't actually matter. ;) No one's going to care.

really, if i could change one thing would be to catch up within the next 6months. i mean, i'm almost the smallest in the class, in the year almost. i'm around 5 1 5 2 and hte smallest is like 4 10 4 11 but i mean, hes always been tiny...
also, one q, the skin around the shaft of your penis, if you're cut which i am, is it supposed to be a little tight and when the penis grows does the skin around it grow, if not, well, i thinki 've reached my limit or itll tear. its a lil tight now ... but i was cut for a reason when i was little i kept getting infection due to right forskin :|(

People usually underestimate how stretchy skin is; it is unlikely it will tear. But if it is really tight, then you could ask your GP. And yes, tight foreskin is common.
And yes, the skin does grow with the penis otherwise everyone would have no skin on their penises ;)

You might wanna book a GP appointment and tell him all of this stuff you know... that doesn't sound great.

First of all, Sam is NOT a doctor (even if he is very smart). And second, how could he help you with that problem if he can't see it? Sending pictures of something like that would be horribly against the rules. I'd go to a real doctor and get checked out.

Umm...why? They are doctors. They are professional people who have seen it all before, plus they have confidentiality so they can't say anything about it. This is NOT something you can get help with on the internet. If there is a problem, you need to go to a doctor and get it checked out. It is the only option.

Regarding seeing a doctor PianoMan has hit the issue spot on, and doctors are not there to judge you, and they are professionals who are there to solve problems. It really is not a big deal seeing a doctor about penile problems, and the only person who has a big deal about such problem is the patient and not the doctor or nurses. Trust me, once you go through medical school penises, vaginas, and other parts of the human body are really nothing at all. Doctors and nurses view the human body from a biological sense and don't look at things the same way we the non-medical world does. If you have a problem, then you seriously need to see a doctor and be open with him/her. Doctors and nurses see tonnes of penises, and it is not like yours is going to be any different no matter how odd you may think it is.
As for your overall development, you are a late bloomer and nothing more serious. It seems like you started puberty lately, and for better or for worse you are on the older age spectrum of puberty. The reality is puberty is happening to you, but it is just going to happen later. To me, it is better to be mentally ready for puberty and let the physical changes happen later like you rather than puberty happening one day when a kid is 11/12. At least when you grow now you are going to understand what is going on. Sure, it hurts one ego to be the runt of the litter, but the fact remains that late bloomers catch up really fast. You don't have any control on how fast puberty will go, but you do have control over your attitude. Focus instead on how you are everyone else's equal rather than looking at how you are inferior. About the only physical thing you can do is to eat right (www.mypyramid.gov), stay active in moderation, and stay away from drugs and alcohol. All because you are a late bloomer does not make you any less masculine than your counterparts.

Wavey, sorry for the delay in getting to you, it's been busy for me. I know you depend on my feedback.
First, I think you're responding to the anxiety of being a bit behind where you'd like to be in development, and this is only reinforced when you see other guys more advanced development. But, there's a wide range of development considered normal, everyone develops at their own rate, and frankly it always seems to be too slow.
Second, if you're circumcised, there's enough skin on your penis when it grows so nothing 'stretches' or 'pops' or 'rips'. That reddish ridge you're describing is called the corona, just above the circ line, and everyone (even uncut guys) have it. It's just immediately visible b/c there's no foreskin covering it. Also, eventhough circ is less common in the UK, it's not a big deal, and it won't affect sexual *anything*, it's really an appearance issue, like eye color.
Third, I think you should talk with your dad about your rate of development. Ask him when he started to go thru puberty, the answer will be very reasssuring. That's b/c these things are genetic, they run in families. It's far more predictive to ask him then to compare to your friends. You might also ask him why you were circumcised, sometimes knowing the reason for something makes you feel less self conscious.
lastly, doctors are trained professionals, and like me (the closest thing we have to a 'real' doctor), are really non judgemental, it's not so personal asking a professional b/c they have some training and knowledge based on professional epxerience, rather than locker room stuff or well intentioned but often inaccurate advice. Your doctor is a caretaker, by asking him questions, you allow him to take better care of you, which should relieve your concerns and make you feel better.
OK?

your body can keep growing in all areas until your are about 21. so really there's nothing to worry about

The first think you can do is calm down!. Every one's body is different and it grows up in a different ways. There are some cases (perhaps yours) that the puberty changes come up later that normal, but just wait, I mean, you cannot be as you are for all the time. You need to have changes, and believe me, you will soon, just be patient and don't be so hard with yourself

Just wondering if your penis is 3 inches hard, or 3 inches when soft. I was a late bloomer and didn't start growing pubes until 15. I also worried when i saw all the other guys with bigger bulges and stuff. Im in my 20 nows and i dont have a huge penis, about 6 inches, but i do remember it did grow for me up until about 20. I mean it was gradual and not major, i.e. my childhood erection size was 4 inches, and I added about 2 inches by my 20s.
Dont stress, if your cock works and and it feels good when you wank, then thats all you need. (also, are you cumming yet, i.e. have your balls dropped and started producing sperm?). I think you should see a doctor and get a check on your hormones/endocrine system. I wish i had done that when younger as I suspect that I've always had a lower testosterone level. All you need to do is ask for a endocrine blood test to check your hormones and dont be embarrassed as you wont need to show him your penis or anything. Bring it up with your parents and explain that you feel it is important, as low testosterone can also affect you in other ways, mentally and physically. Doctors are there so you can get these checks, so do it.
You also said you jack off with your mate, so you have both seen each other's cocks and are comfortable about dick issues.You should talk to him about it, I'm sure he'll put your mind at ease. I mean, how big is his cock compared to yours, is it a lot bigger, or just a bit? Do you think he wanks with you because he feels comfortable being bigger than you or that it makes him feel like a big man? If so, check the size of his cock - as he could be on the small size too in which case you both have the same thing in common and you can confide in each other. Remember, dicks come in all shapes and sizes, short and fat, long and thin, small, average and massive ... but at the end of the day the sexual feeling is the same.
At the end of the day, be thankfull your cock is normal works, it will definately get bigger by the time you fully mature, dont worry. Also there are a lot of guys around with genetic conditions that have dicks that are only like 1-1.5 inches hard (condition called micropenis), or bad foreskin problems or two eyes, and so forth, imagine what they would feeling, - so be assured that there is always someone worse off than you - also most asians have little penises and you dont see it stopping them from having chlidren - in fact they have no problems at all going by how quickly they reproduce!!! Im sure they enjoy sex the same as everyone else too (as asian girls have tighter vaginas to compensate).
At the end of the day enjoy your dick (that is why you were given one), and dont worry about all the guys you see with massive ones - as sometimes they are embarrased by it too and view their own dicks as abnormal and have the same fears and worries about being 'normal' - aslo the guys with the really big ones can often never get any good oral sex - so if anyone picks on you about their size (especially if they are abnormally large in the locker room) just tell them that your cock is the perfect size for a mouth to cover your whole hard on it all and that it feels amazing, and that they will never get to experience a full blowjob like you - then they will then be jealous and shut right up.
Good luck
