My son is 11 and has adhd and on medication. Does anyone know if this effects puberty because he has no signs at all. He doesn't need deodorant yet or any hair or anything anywhere yet. Wondering if the medication can have an effect ?

I’ve no idea OP but I would say that many boys age 11 are not showing signs of puberty,unlike many girls that age.

There's a thread going on over in the teens section where the MNer's DS is 14 and not started puberty yet. I think 11 is still quite young to be worrying Smile

My DS now 15 didn't start till about 14.5 or later I think he's still a bit young but maybe developing his testies when they grow first
