How does Puberty affect your body?

Puberty is a dreadful experience for all of us at one point whether you are 9-14 or even 6-14! Puberty seems as if you are no longer you.

This is what a Doctor has said

"parents need to tell there teens 10-19 the following

You may not really know your Sexuality no matter how confident you feel

Kids should know the following about puberty:

Girls become more rounded, especially in the hips and legs.

Girls' breasts begin to swell and then grow, sometimes one faster than the other

Girls and boys get pubic hair and underarm hair, and their leg hair becomes thicker and darker.

Both girls and boys often get acne and start to sweat more.

Both girls and boys have a growth spurt.

Boys' penises and testicles grow larger.

Boys' voices change and become deeper.

Boys grow facial hair and their muscles get bigger.

Boys sometimes have wet dreams, which means they ejaculate in their sleep.

When a girl begins menstruating, once a month, her uterine lining fills with blood in preparation for a fertilized egg. If the egg isn't fertilized, she will have a period. If it is fertilized, she will become pregnant.

A girl's period may last 3 days to a week, and she can use sanitary napkins (pads) or tampons to absorb the blood.

Common Questions

Not surprisingly, kids usually have lots of questions as they learn about puberty. It's important to make sure you give your child the time and opportunity to ask questions — and answer them as honestly and thoroughly as possible."
