7. Small Penis

New born boys typically have a very small penis. There is no reason for it to be any larger because it is only going to be used to pass urine out of the body. As boys get older, however, their penis will begin to grow in relation to their body size. This is more so the case when they enter into puberty.

Boys with Kallmann syndrome will find that their penis remains small regardless of age. In addition, they will also not undergo other changes brought about by puberty. They will not begin to grow pubic hair, their voices will not deepen, and their body size and dimensions will not begin to change.
