Without some information it is hard to guess.

What do you mean by 'guava'? There are several different species that may
be called that.

What conditions of climate, aspect and soil is it growing in?

Is it otherwise healthy and well grown?

Is this a common guava (Psidium guajava), strawberry guava (P.
cattleiannum), purple strawberry guava (P. littorale longipes), or
pineapple guava (Feijoa sellowiana)? Each has different requirements
regarding summer heat, watering, etc.

Has it ever flowered?

Do you have adequate honeybees? Do you fertilize? Does your plant bloom?
What sort of soil and light does it have?
