Meaning of Puberty

What is Puberty? Puberty is the time in your life when your body starts changing from that of the child to an adult.  While there is no right time for puberty to begin, girls usually start a little earlier than boys – usually between 8 and 13 years of age. Puberty for boys usually starts at about 10 to 14 years of age.

  1. A boy’s voice gets deeper.
  2. His muscles develop.
  3. His chest gets broader.
  4. Hair starts to grow under his arms, on his legs and face.
  5. During this time his penis and testicles will also grow bigger and longer.
