What are the changes that adolescent undergo during puberty?

Sagot :

Adolescence is a time for growth spurts and puberty changes. An adolescent may grow several inches in several months followed by a period of very slow growth, then have another growth spurt. Changes with puberty (sexual maturation) may happen gradually or several signs may become visible at the same time.

Answer:

  • Breasts will start developing. This is the first visible sign that puberty is starting. It’s normal for the left and right breasts to grow at different speeds. It’s also common for the breasts to be a bit tender as they develop. If your child wants a bra, a soft crop top or sports bra can be a good first choice.
  • A growth spurt occurs. Some parts of the body – like the head, face and hands – might grow faster than limbs and torso. This might result in your child looking out of proportion for a while. On average, girls grow 5-20 cm. They usually stop growing at around 16-17 years.
  • The body shape will change. For example, a girl’s hips will widen.
  • The external genitals (vulva) and pubic hair will start to grow. Pubic hair will get darker and thicker over time.
  • Around 12-14 years (about two years after breast development starts)
