Im 18 Years Old, Im Only Just Getting Hair Under
Question: Im 18 years old, Im only just getting hair under my arms, but have had pubic hair for 2 years now. My penis hasnt really grown since I was younger, My Testicles although definitely have. I have only just started to get a moustache working however it still isnt to the stage where I would shave it and am experiencing finally some hair growth on my legs aswell. I have had a growth spurt last year and this year as I grew from like 5 foot 6 to just over 6 foot now.
The main things that I am worried about is my penis size and my voice. My voice hasn't really changed in years and I still sound like a pre-pubescent. And my penis erect is only really 4.2 inches.
Realistically what stage of puberty am I in given what Ive told you, should I expect more growth downstairs and will my voice deepen?

Brief Answer:
Yes your voice may deepen with time

Hello
Welcome To Ask A Doctor Service
I have gone through your question, I understand your concern.
Your high pitch voice may be due to structure of your vocal cord, and if it is so, then voice is unlikely to improve, and we will get to know the outcome only after few years.
Second thing about your penis size, 4.2 is not bad and length of penis does not have to do with manliness.
But yes you should get your serum testosterone level test done to rule out any hormonal abnormality.
I hope your query is clear now.
Thanks and regards
