Title: Poll - please help!
Post by LeLimey on Mar 2nd, 2006, 5:31am
Hello everyone,
A friend of mine is trying to complete a paper on CH. Part of his theory is that, due to a potentially dodgy pineal gland, the onset of puberty may be out of skew with non-sufferers: melatonin suppresses physiological sexuality in mammals and levels of melatonin are thought to determine the onset of puberty.
With that in mind could you please answer the following questions. I'd really like it if we could get as many of us to complete this as possible.
Thank you for your help!  :-*
Helen

Helen, I think your friend is overthinking the problem.

But, since you asked, here’s my answers…….

What is your current age:  59
What is your gender: Male
At what age did you reach puberty? 12? 13? I don’t remember. I wasn’t paying attention.
