    Slow/delayed puberty at 21
    Yes, I'm 21 and still going trough puberty, I'm sick of this, my voice hasn't changed, and everything in my body is still the same "size" it was 10 years ago, I need to know what kind of medicament should I take to accelerate this process because seriously, it crushed my social life, I'm unemployed, and I can't have the privilege of socializing because people think I'm a freak, please help

    Have you been to a doctor and discussed this?

    I'm afraid I can't afford to pay for a doctor, and I don't have health insurance or anything.

    Then call around to doctors' offices, chiropractors' offices, etc. and talk to the actual medical care provider to wheel and deal for a low-cost appointment. They actually will do that sort of thing. Or call your county health department and get an appointment with a doctor who will definitely accept payment on a sliding scale or might even accept a barter situation. Saying you can't pay and don't have insurance is a cop out. There are plenty of ways to get an appointment and deal with the cost if you think outside the box.

    Why are you not employed? Are you blaming your endocrine system?
