Haven't started puberty??

[Xunji]

I'm 13, and I haven't started puberty.. At least I don't think I have. I have a forturnal brother, I think maybe he's the problem.

He started Puberty at 11 years old, and he's about 5"6.
He's 14 now.

Me, on the other hand, I don't know if I started puberty yet, and I'm 4"11!
I have *some* hair growing on my legs, I don't know if that's a start of Puberty, or it's just randomly happening.

Will I start puberty sometime soon? :what:

You must remember that puberty comes at all different ages for each one of us. While you usually start puberty around the time of your relatives, it is not uncommon to start at a different time than your brother(s) and/or sister(s). It really depends upon when your parents started puberty relative to their gender's group. It is quite possible that your mom started on the early end of puberty for females and your dad on the late end of puberty for males. Either way, you will eventually go through it. There really is nothing to worry about, unless you are get to the age of 16-18 and still see little signs of puberty, at which point you should consult a doctor. You will most likely start puberty soon. Just be happy with your body, and let it take the course it wants to take.

Hi, welcome to vt. Like the others have said you just need to be patient, it will happen sometime soon I expect, there's nothing you can do to speed it up.

I doubt you'd get hairs on your legs if you hadnt started puberty, often thats one of the last things to occur.
And, whats your brother got to do with this exactly?

Everyone starts puberty at different times. You are just a late bloomer. Nothing to be worried about.

I'm forturnel twins with him, meaning I'm the exact opposite, and he started puberty early, so I'd probably start late.

EDIT: Most of the Hair on my legs is by a cut, I don't know why, though.

I've had some hairs on the legs and arms since I was like 8 or 9 ^^ and I started puberty like a few months ago (ok they are a few and not thick but thin, but some nonetheless ^^)
