During puberty, several hormones are produced which prepare the body for sexual and physical development. The main ones are testosterone in boys and oestrogen in girls. Both also produce progesterone, however it is mostly concentrated in females as it aids in reproduction. The hormones are released by signals sent from the Pituitary Gland in the brain, trigger the hormones to be released either from the testicles or the ovaries.
