[i][b][u]Does [big]ANYONE ELSE[/big] have delayed puberty? [/u][/b][/i]

I finally received a diagnosis for my lack of development. While in a children's hospital, for a different reason, I was told the name of my pubertal dysfunction.
I have KALLMANN SYNDROME,a form of Hypogonadatropic Hypogonadism

KS delays, or prevents puberty, and diminishes, or prevents a sense of smell. This is called ANOSMIA. In the brain, the nasal bulb doesn't develop completely, or at all.

@Wolfboy Mon ami, you are thirteen, Yes? You are still in the normal range. However, I am certain that is of little comfort, given showering after gym class. I recall boys of 12 shaving after gym. Of course the whole point of shaving after gym was SO everyone would see,
"Wow. He's only 12 and already shaves, while I'm still waiting for the puberty fairy to visit at all."
Don't worry, mon ami, you still have time. Imagine graduating high school, still waiting. Life can be hard, but good friends can be a support.

The pituitary gland is wa-a-ay inside the brain, almost at the centre. How on [i]earth[/i] is it even possible to injure it?
One would have to drive a spike through the soft tissue of the mandible, just behind the tongue, through the soft pallet of the maxilla, just to get close to the pituitary.
It would be difficult to stay alive after such an injury.
Are you alright?

I damaged my pituitary gland when I was a kid, so I've always been fairly short and small when the rest of my family is tall and strong. I had delayed puberty, but once I hit it, it was over in like a few months. I grew completely up in no time at all

I temporarily lost my sense of smell my inhaling sulphuric acid

Did an automobile battery explode in front of you? How did that happen? The sulfuric acid, I mean.

I'm already in my 4th puberty but I kinda wish the 1st got delayed

Estoypuber · 22-25, M

I don't understand. What is fourth puberty? Is that a joke, or is there an aspect of this I've ever heard of?
Duchess, you must be having me on. Fourth?

Big brother, I started puberty when i was 11.

Estoypuber · 22-25, M

That must have been confusing for you.
Both my brothers, older and younger, had precocious puberty, and started at seven and eight, respectively.
