Name (Aaron Adam) Age 24 Gender (M ) Current prescription(s) you are taking. none Current condition(s) you are being treated for. none I need professional advice on this Im having problem with secondary sexual characteristics maturation. first, im 24yo male but i look like 14yo boy. im too skinny. i guess zinc would help me. but which zinc should i get?? Zinc, Zinc Picolinate, Zinc Glycinate, Ultimate Zinc-C or Opti-L-Zinc? Why am i so miserable..i searched many sites and found out that zinc picolinate and glycinate are best as they can absorbed in bloodstream/body quicker.. is it true?? Which one should i choose? zinc picolinate or glycinate?? I want it mainly for sexual maturation. i dun have mustache,beard,thick hair,deep voice,muscular body etc.. see,those are secondary male sexual characteristics that should occur during puberty.

Hi.

Do not get disheartened. Please see in how many percentage your approach was successful.

If I were your doctor I would suggest you to get panchakarma in a good ayurveda hospital for all the problems you mentioned. After that jeevaniya gan and aphrodisiacs will help you. For moustaches etc endocrinologist can advice well but there are side effects too.

The best thing is to adopt ayurveda at first instance. Do not have high hopes on zinc and derivatives.

Please brave the things a d be like a man by continuing your gym etc but nourish with natural herbals. We may also suggest some if you agree.

Hope this is honest answer.
