All the sweat glands function after puberty. Only they may get bigger in size.
sweat gland (apocrine)
Sweat glands are always working even when you are a child. but you sweat more during puberty and the sweat actually has no odor. It smells when it hits the bacteria on the skin.
The type of gland that opens into hair follicles and secretes sweat after puberty is called the apocrine gland. These glands are found predominantly in the armpits and pubic region and produce a thicker, more odorous sweat compared to the eccrine sweat glands found throughout the body. Apocrine glands are influenced by hormonal changes that occur during puberty, leading to increased sweating and body odor.
The first gland id the testis. The sweat glands grow after they get the increased testosterone.
That would be primarily the Pituitary gland in your brain. (pitt-OO-ih-tare-ee)
The apocrine sweat glands become active during puberty. They release a sweat that is very oily. This oil is degraded by bacteria that is normally present on the skin and gives off the typical "sweaty smell".
It's when your sweat gland gets infected.
Eccrine glands are the most abundant sweat glands and they are also over your body and function throughout your lifetime.
Puberty is started by a sudden increase in hormones, released by the Pituitary gland.
The sweat pore is were the sweat from the sweat gland is released. The main function of sweat is temperature regulation (thermoregulation).
