Dear What Part of the Male Anatomy Has Hair?,

Puberty is a time in life when your body grows and undergoes changes. This generally begins between ages 9-15 in males. At the start of puberty, hair will sprout on your pubic area, growing darker and thicker with time. Additional signs of male puberty may include:

  • Hair growth under arms
  • Weight and muscle gain
  • Lengthening and widening of the penis
  • Enlargement of the testes
  • Acne (pimples)
  • Body odor
  • Beginning of male erections

 

Everyone experiences puberty at a different age. The amount of pubic hair you have currently is likely dependent on the stage of puberty you are undergoing.
