  4. Symptoms • Abnormal body proportions (long legs, short trunk, shoulder equal to hip size) • Enlarged breasts (gynecomastia) • Sexual problems • Less than normal amount of pubic, armpit, and facial hair • Small, firm testicles • Small penis • Tall height

  5. Sex linked • You get it from birth .In the course of puberty, a lot of changes happen to boys. They get muscular, grow body hair, their voice deepens, their emotions go crazy, they get more aggressive, and their genitals mature. In the course of my puberty, I got breasts and fat, had no body hair, had a high voice, stayed fairly calm, and my genitals stayed as minimally hairless and small as they ever had been. .The major problem faced by me, and by every other Klinefelter's Syndrome victim, is that maturity and learning go from normal to very, very slow after puberty kicks into action. It takes energy to learn, and I didn't have any.
