How do you know when you started puberty?

Answer 1

randy

Answer 2

All sorts of things that you never had to worry about start happening to you.Some creep up on you like the appearance of underarm hair which is initially very fine, then some fine hair around your genitals. If you have siblings you may get teased because you begin to get darkening of the skin on your genitals and the hair becomes obvious. Arm and leg hair darken and coarsen. Then the skin becomes oilier, you sweat more easily and it has an obviously unpleasant smell particularly if you are anxious or embarrassed

Girls begin to have breast development, guys may have brest swelling and tenderness(50 % of guys).

Girls start having menstrual bleeding which is at first irregular.

Guys start noticing that the testicles are getting larger, the scrotal skin gets dark ant then the skin of the p***s gets thicker and darker. The head of the p***s becomes more prominent and sticks out more from the shaft. Erections start happening when least expected. The urge to m********e becomes more urgent. Soon males produce clear ejaculate when having am orgasms and within months have cloudy s***n.

The list goes on: boys have deepening of the voice...then muscle growth and height start to happen unbelievably fast.

It would help to know what your concerns are because most of us have a suspicion that puberty has started because of the reactions we have to the changes, not to  mention parents reactions

Answer 9

it's more of a gradual thing. i consider puberty when you start to get acne, because that's a sign your homones are out of balance

Answer 10

I was born without a pituitary and so have no male or female hormones of my own. Through an Endocrinologist, I chose to take testosterone on my 20th birthday, so unlike a lot of people, I know exactly when I started puberty because I picked the day. I later decided to stop treatment, because I felt it was more trouble than it's worth. So now, I'm back to my old self again.
