Can being in a calorie deficit harm puberty?

[Deleted member 61496]

They say that being in caloric surplus produces more estrogen and others say that being in deficit produces less testosterone, after all, what is the difference between the two?

Don't be in a deficit in your teens, your body is growing and needs the extra food (bulking) Deficit in your teens is just self sabotage.
Just go gym and the fat will go away.

Do you think doing Mike Menzer's method can help me? And make me produce less cortisol?

Makes no difference. Even if you starve in ur teens you will be the height you’re supposed to be according to genetics

But I really don't know if it was because of that or if it's genetics.

It's a mix. The ones who say it doesn't matter are the ones that will break from a judo kick.

Caloric deficit is harmful than helpful. You just need good metabolism which is more than likely genetic.

 

[i_love_roosters]

Yes

Just go hard at sport, and eat enough to perform. Eat as much as you want but go as hard as you can on sport
