I'm 19 years old and I have come to believe I'm a late bloomer. Both my brother and my dad were early bloomers. My brother hitting 6'1 by 14 and my dad already having thick arm hair at 12. Me? I just started growing navel hair like last year and my thigh hair is still growing. Can't grow a moustache or anything like that, and I'm just under 5'9. Those are a few examples. Can I still be growing? Will I still grow?

N91 agony auntI'm 19, I'm 5'6 have to shave about once a fortnight because my facial hair doesn't grow fast and isn't prickly at all. Don't have super hairy arms or legs, no hair on my chest and have about 10 long hairs on my naval area.

I used to be really self conscious about this stuff when I was at school, now I don't care about it. You will still grow and develop of course - just let it happen and don't worry about it, everybody is different and grows at their own pace - don't be ashamed or worried about it!

Everyone develops at their own pace. You're 19, they say you're officially done developing at 25. That leaves quite some time. But again, it doesn't mean you'll change a lot. Just let the chips fall where they may and accept yourself as you are now. My brother is 24 and he can't grow a moustache either (thank god, it would look terrible on him).

So in a nutshell:

Can you still grow? Yes. Will you? Only time will tell. I'm no psychic, I'm afraid.
