Pediatrician,  's  Response
Thank you for consulting in HealthCareMagic. I understand your concern. Puberty is a confusing time of life when you do not really know what is normal. A penis size of 3.5 inches is absolutely normal and since it has the capacity of becoming erect, that is all that is needed. The secondary sexual characteristics like body hair and deep voice would come eventually and you need not bother about that. When you have both the balls in the sac, there is not much to worry. The increase in size sometimes may take much more time in some individuals and there is nothing to worry about.

You need to maintain a good diet rich in proteins as this is the growing age and you need to help the body to cope with the same.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. Wish your kid good health.
