Hey I’m 15, Turning 16 In Less Than One Month.

Question: Hey I’m 15, turning 16 in less than one month. I was wondering if it was possible to have your lower body be more developed than your upper body. I would say I’m in the middle of XXXXXXX Stage 4 in the bottom half of my body, but maybe like 3 in my upper body. I have little armpit hair, and it does look boyish and small compared to my lower body. Is this normal? Will my upper body catch up to the lower half eventually?
