      Hi prosyndicate, I’m afraid I really don’t know the answer to that one, sorry! I would guess that it isn’t possible, but I’m really not sure.

      Hi prosyndicate. I’m not an expert in this area but what I do know is that puberty happens at different times for different people. Some may experience it early, others may experience it late…everybody is different and that’s what makes us all interesting 🙂 There is a genetic disorder called Kallmann syndrome that can delay puberty but that’s all I really know on the topic…sorry I can’t answer more clearly! If you’re worried, it might be a good idea to chat to someone you are close to such as a parent or guardian, or a brother or sister.
