I hate the fact that at age 19 I still deal with the occasional voice crack. Its not a high pitched squeak or anything but just a sudden shift to a higher pitch. Its embarrasses myself even though people may or may not notice it. I do deal with nasal allergies so I am wondering if a saline treatment (nasal irrigation with salt water) may be a solution. Speech disorder? Ongoing puberty? Let me have some input on this...thanks
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Simple enough, it's a puberty thing and some people stop puberty later than others. When I was your age, I had the same problem; the cracks would come occasionally at such a late age; except without the allergies. Most notably, the problem stopped without my doing anything. You could always ask a doctor, and that is somewhat advisable given we're not board certified doctors, but I doubt their response will be different.

How often does it happen? Every day? Multiple times per day?
What are the environments it happens in? Are you nervous? Stressed?
How long has it been since you've spoken last? Seconds? Minutes? Hours?
The more information you provide the more we can help.

Sometimes I can go weeks w/o cracking and then for a week straight my voice may crack at least once every day. It seems to get worse whenever my allergies act up, since I seem to produce a lot more mucous. Nervousness can exacerbate it as well. I have also noticed a trend from me not masturbating to a less likelihood of not cracking, maybe from increased testosterone, but that is a very long shot of being the real reason.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Can you remember how you were speaking when this happened?
Were you talking quickly?
Were you saying too much in one breath?
Were you moving your pitch up and down to: indicate a question or a tangent, emphasize certain words, or to express a mood?
Were you being sarcastic, diplomatic, saying something controversial, or doing anything else that might cause you to intentionally soften or heighten your voice, eventually accidentally pushing it beyond it's natural range?
I'm 22 - so puberty's been over for a long time - but sometimes my voice will seem to crack when I do these things.
