I'm a 19-year-old guy and I've been noticing that my beard isn't growing much. I eat a lot but it seems like my body isn't really growing either, as I've become taller but thinner. Also, my penis seems small to me. I usually masturbate about three times a week. Should I be concerned about my health because of these things?
