It's different for everyone. Mostly it's around the ages of 10 and 15 for most people. but it can start earlier or later. it doesn't mean there is something wrong with you, everyone is different.

Answer 2

Puberty comes at about 12-13 years old. Some 11 year old people can have puberty or even later. It depends on your weight (doesnt mean you have to be anrexic or obese) your muscle and your genes.

Answer 3

Puberty is a very variable process that changes a boys body into an adults body. Boys can start it at different ages and they don't all go through the various stages in the same order. Here at the visible signs of puberty, which might happen in any order... growth of hair on your scrotum and in the region of your penis (also around your anus), growth of hair on your ankles and in your armpits. Growth of facial hair. Your penis will get longer and thicker, your scrotum will get darker in colour and hang lower to accomodate the increasing size of your testes. You will sweat more and your sweat will begin to smell. You may get spots and blackheads. You will grow taller and your muscles will develop. You will find yourself think about sex a lot and you will get erections. You may find yourself mentally comparing the size of your own penis with the penises of other boys in the showers at school, this doesn't necessarily mean that you are gay, just that you are curious which is perfectly normal. You may also feel the urge to masturbate and when you do at some point you will eventually produce sperm. Oh and your voice will "break" and lower in pitch as your larynx (voice box or Adam's apple) enlarges and you'll also suffer from abrupt mood swings (your family will suffer because of them too). There is no definitive end point to puberty. By 21 or so years of age (if not sooner) you probably have reached your maximum height and your penis will probably have reached its maximum length but muscle mass and body hair may continue to extend after this age and may continue into the mid thirties or perhaps even later.

Answer 4

You are probably asking this because you think that you are too small or too tall. Peak growth normally occurs at around 14 for boys and varies alot with girls. Check out this website if you want to predict your peak growth:

This will not always be accurate as some people have constitutional growth delay. This is when you grow slowly and have a late growth spurt. You will probably catch up with your friends if you think that you have this. I think I have as my friends have gradually got taller and taller than me but I'm starting to grow now. I've grown about 3.5 inches in the past year to 5'4 and I used this calculator to predict my growth aswell.

There are no syndromes which stunt growth, just eat healthily and get some excercise.
