IT seems them i'll grow every three weeks or so, and it'll be about one inch or two inches on my overall height.
I realize i hit puberty late.

I am a bit confused about the pubic hair on my face. I don't want facial hair, but it won't grow at all anyway. I have that little three or four hairs that just pop up there.

But the real weird part is the pubic hair under my arms. It started to grow like a year ago... and it just... stopped. I don't mind that to much. Bu it just seems like it's not typically usual. I had pubic hair on my lower regions for about one year longer than under my arms.

That doesn't sound too unusual. During puberty some people grow a lot in a very short amount of time. I remember kids coming back from summer vacation about a foot taller!

Facial hair and pubic hair are two completely different things. Pubic hair is hair that grows on or around your genitals, no where else. So you do not have pubic hair on your face, and you never will.

Facial hair is one of the last things to come in for a lot of guys. So if you're right in the middle of puberty now, it's not surprising you to have little to no facial hair.

You do not have pubic hair under your arms either, and you never will.

You probably will get more underarm hair eventually. That's one of the things that doesn't usually come in fully until later in puberty as well. It's normal to have some light hair or peach fuzz until then.

But people do vary in the amount of hair that they have. Some people do have lighter or thinner hair. And that's ok too.

Basically all you can really do is wait and see what things look like when you are done developing. But so far you sound completely normal. But you can always double check with a doctor if you want as well. 3nodding

Yeah, don't worry. I hit puberty way late. All the hair on your body grows at different rates. For me I got pubic hair real early, then some underarm hair, then all the hair grew some more and my facial hair started growing faster. The rates were all over the place but after a year or two it all evened out. My best advice is to shave your facial hair even if it's patchy cause it looks crappy if you let it just grow in patches (I know from experience). Eventually it'll grow all over and you can do whatever you want with it. It's all good, don't worry.
