A member asked:
If you don't have an adam apple does that mean you have not hit puberty?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No : Has your voice changed? Are you chubby? The size of your laryngeal prominence (adam's apple) is driven by genetics and your point in puberty. If all the other signs of puberty are present, the size of your adam's apple is irrelevant.
