15 years old now, im short, skinny, weak, with a high voice. Its really putting me down, especially as I am sporty and I just cant compete with other kids my age in strength.
I have been to the doctors, my bone age is about 13-14, and I am getting a blood test to look at testosterone levels in september. But thats too far away, thats after the summer holidays and I will be in year 11.
I try to eat healthy for growing reasons, what are the best foods to eat? Also, what excersises can I do to build up some form of muscle and body strength even though I havnt really hit puberty yet?
Please help!
Hi ___23679
It does sound like you have low testosterone, but don't worry as you will catch up with your peers. I was the same, but I don't know if you are the same as me, having health problems from an early age.
But as for myself I added a lot of carbs like potatoes, pasta and rice. Also dairy products mainly milk to help with bone density.
For my age now I still think that I am a 13 stone weakling, but as I look in the mirror I don't look that skinny.
Above all be patient.
Do not worry your voice will soon break,build your self up at the gym, and
say to your self you are good at what you do.allways where a smile ,and you will get there.best wishes Pauline Humphreys.
