If a boy is 14 and not started puberty should he see doctor?
Yes, it is generally recommended that a boy see a doctor if he has not started puberty by the age of 14. This is because late puberty can be a sign of an underlying medical condition that may need treatment. Some possible causes of late puberty include:
- Hormonal imbalances
- Genetic disorders
- Chronic diseases
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Certain medications
A doctor can evaluate the boy's physical development and order tests to determine the cause of the delayed puberty. Early diagnosis and treatment can help improve the boy's overall health and development.
