I'm 15 and my balls have not dropped please help because I'm really scared?

A medical problem of this sort cannot really be sorted out by means of advice given on the internet; you would have to be examined by a doctor in order to find out what the problem is. If you mean that your scrotum is an empty bag of skin with no testes inside it you should see your doctor as soon as you can arrange to. If you mean that your testes are inside your scrotum but that it hasn't grown much yet and is not hanging down as many other boys' scrotums. Then this could be because you are late starting puberty and it might still be worth having a word with your doctor It is still possible however, that you could have Testicular cancer. So it is advised that you see a medical professional. It is highly unlikely that you have testicular cancer as the symptoms differ completely from your complaint.

Where can you get help for your 15-year-old son who is out of control and has been smoking pot and skipping school and has no respect for authority and will not obey you?

Tough love method: call the police and have him arrested if you find pot in his possession/belongings. Jail might scare him straight. He needs some authority that he cannot ignore = cops. You need to do something drastic now before it gets worse and he commits a crime. Get him therapy, it is possible that he smokes pot and skips school because he is escaping his problems. Another thing I have heard about: send him to brat camp.

Have hair not a lot but some around the base of your penis are you starting puberty?

Puberty is a wonderful time of physical changes. Hair begins to grow in the underarms and over the pubic bone, girls experience the beginning of breasts, and males experience beginning changes in the penis and scrotum. Young males should not be alarmed if hair growth is sparse at first; it will soon grow and begin to cover the pubic bone, base of the penis, where the scrotum attaches to the body, and even around the anus.

These changes laid the foundation for the growth of complex societies and the eventual rise of civilizations.

Why are my breasts getting bigger every year considering the fact that I'm 18 and not sexually active or take any hormone pills?

Breast development is something girls start to go through when puberty hits.

Between the ages 17 and 22, most girls body shape starts becoming more "womanly" with larger breasts and hips and a smaller waist - this may or may not be associated with weight loss or gain. It is a normal part of the maturation process and is not a cause for alarm. It is not a sign of sexual activity or use of hormones.

We don't actually stop maturing until we are around 21 (or slightly older). If you have gained weight that can also be the issue. Whether you have sex or not does not matter. Sex does not make the breasts grow.
