I'm 15 almost 16. I've had underarm hair and pubic hair for 3 years and I'm 5"11. People think I'm gay bec my voice isn't deep. I am also starting to get chest hair, and facial hair. My voice isn't super high and feminin, but it still sounds like it did when I was in 6th grade..

One thing you can check is your sex hormone levels. See if your estrogen levels are within normal limits or whether they are high. Remember that diet greatly influences your hormonal level. In other words, watch for specific estrogenic foods like soy and dairy.

The larynx (say: LAIR-inks), also known as your voice box, actually gets bigger during puberty. The larynx, located in your throat, is a tube-shaped piece of cartilage — the same stuff your ears and your nose are made from. One of its jobs is to let you talk, sing, hum, yell, laugh, and make all sorts of noises.
When a boy reaches puberty (testicular enlargement occurs first), his body begins making lots of testosterone (say: tes-TOSS-tuh-rone). The testosterone causes his larynx to grow and his vocal cords to get longer and thicker. Vocal cords are thin muscles that stretch across the larynx like rubber bands.
Not only do older guys and men sound different from boys, but you can also see the difference in their necks. When the larynx grows bigger, it tilts to a different angle and part of it sticks out inside the neck. You can see it at the front of the throat. This is known as the Adam's apple.
Everyone's timetable is different, so some kids' voices might start to change earlier and some might start a little later. Some voices might drop gradually, whereas others might drop quickly.
If this hasn't happened to you yet, don't worry. You can always have your doctor test your testosterone level to be sure.
