Question

I am 15 years old and 170CM tall. I experienced seminal emission at 13, followed by masturbation for a year, which I have since stopped. I have a lot of body hair, and I grew armpit hair in sixth grade, while none of my peers did. I’ve also changed voice. Am I experiencing early puberty? Will early puberty prevent me from growing taller? My penis hasn’t grown since I started masturbating.

Answer

Based on your description, early puberty does not necessarily affect height. Height is mainly influenced by innate genetic factors, and it seems you have good development. Although you may have developed earlier than your peers, this does not necessarily mean it’s due to masturbation. However, it should be noted that excessive masturbation at this age is harmful to the body. At this stage, you still have the potential to continue growing taller, but whether you can reach 180CM is uncertain.
