Puberty and Adolescence

No. Big decisions differ for people. Some people think some matters more important than others. What may be a trivial matter for one may be very important to someone else.

The law protects you from many things and responsibilities but that does not mean you should take advantage of that fact.

Teenagers should be starting to make their own decisions, however, they should also be accepting the consequences of those decisions.

no, because it is just a part of growing up...

Voyeuristic gratification means to fullfil your sexual desires by watching others. Usually someone who masturbates themselves while spying on other people who are undressing or having sex.

Puberty may make you sexually confused because it is a period when most sexual hormones are developed.

A nocturnal emission is an ejaculation of semen experienced by a male during sleep.

Better known as a "Wet Dream", these emissions usually happen to males of teenage and young adult ages, although it can happen to men right up into middle age.

It is an involuntary action of orgasm and ejaculation of semen (without masturbation), which happens whilst the penis is erect and the male is dreaming of sexual things during night time sleep. This action usually awakens the male. It is perfectly healthy and natural.

To help avoid it happening the male can masturbate to ejaculation before going to sleep.

Puberty is assessed along the "Tanner Scale" by medical professionals. # Tanner Stage 1 (Prepubertal) ## Height increases at basal rate: 5-6 cm/year ## Breast ### Papilla elevation only ## Pubic Hair ### Villus hair only ### No coarse, pigmented hair # Tanner Stage 2 ## Height increases at accelerated rate: 7-8 cm/year ## Breast ### Breast buds palpable and areolae enlarge ### Age 10.9 years (8.9-12.9 years) ## Pubic Hair ### Minimal coarse, pigmented hair mainly on labia ### Age 11.2 years (9.0-13.4 years) ## Modifications based on increasingly earlier Puberty ### White: Stage 2 changes may appear one year earlier ### Black: Stage 2 changes may appear two years earlier # Tanner Stage 3 ## Height increases at peak rate: 8 cm/year (age 12.5) ## Breast ### Elevation of breast contour; areolae enlarge ### Age 11.9 years (9.9-13.9 years) ## Pubic Hair ### Dark, coarse, curly hair spreads over mons pubis ### Age 11.9 years (9.6-14.1 years) ## Other changes ### Axillary hair develops (13.1 years) ### Acne Vulgaris develops (13.2 years) # Tanner Stage 4 ## Height increases at 7 cm/year ## Breast ### Areolae forms secondary mound on the breast ### Age: 12.9 years (10.5-15.3 years) ## Pubic Hair ### Hair of adult quality ### No spread to junction of medial thigh with perineum ### Age: 12.6 years (10.4-14.8 years) # Tanner Stage 5 ## No further height increases after age 16 years ## Breast ### Adult breast contour ### Areola recesses to general contour of breast ## Pubic hair ### Adult distribution of hair ### Pubic hair spreads to medial thigh ### Pubic hair does not extend up linea alba # Other Milestones ## Adrenarche: Age 6 to 8 years ## Menarche: Age 12.7 years (10.8-14.5 years) ### Delayed >1 year if low body fat (e.g. athlete) ## Peak height velocity: 11.5 years (9.7-13.3 years) ## Basal growth occurs up until Tanner Stage 2 ### Basal Growth rate: 5.0 to 6.0 cm per year ### Girls who mature average time: 8.3 (6.1-10.4) cm/yr ### Girls who mature early: 9.0 (7.0-11.0) cm/yr ### Girls who mature late: 7.5 (5.4-9.6) cm/yr ## Pubertal Growth # Growth in Girls # Tanner Stage 1 (Prepubertal) ## Height increases at basal rate: 5-6 cm/year ## Testes ### Smaller than 4 ml or long axis <2.5 cm ## Pubic Hair ### No coarse, pigmented hair ## Penis Stage ### No growth # Tanner Stage 2 ## Height increases at basal rate: 5-6 cm/year ## Testes ### Size 4 ml or long axis 2.5 to 3.2 cm ### Age 11.5 years (age 9.5 to 13.5 years) ## Pubic Hair ### Minimal coarse, pigmented hair at base of penis ### Age 12.0 years (age 9.9 to 14.0 years) ## Penis Stage ### Earliest increased length and width ### Age 11.5 years (age 10.5-14.5 years) # Tanner Stage 3 ## Height increases at accelerated rate: 7-8 cm/year ## Testes ### Size 12 ml or long axis 3.6 cm ### Age 14.0 years (11.5-16.5 years) ## Pubic Hair ### Coarse, dark curly hair spread over the pubis ### Age 13.1 years (11.2-15.0 years) ## Penis Stage ### Increased length and width ### Age 12.4 years (10.1-14.6 years) ## Other Changes ### Gynecomastia may occur (age 13.2 years) ### Voice breaks (age 13.5 years) ### Muscle mass increases # Tanner Stage 4 ## Height increases at peak rate: 10 cm/year (age 13.8) ## Pubic Hair ### Hair of adult quality ### Not spread to junction of medial thigh with perineum ### Age 13.9 years (12.0-15.8 years) ## Penis ### Continued growth in length and width ### Age 13.2 years (11.2-15.3 years) ## Testes ### Length 4.1 to 4.5 cm ## Other Changes ### Axillary hair (age 14.0 years) ### Voice changes (age 14.1 years) ### Acne Vulgaris (age 14.3 years) # Tanner Stage 5 ## No further height increases after age 17 years ## Pubic Hair ### Adult pubic hair distribution (15.3 years) ### Pubic hair spreads to medial thigh ### No hair spread to linea alba ## Penis ### Mature genital size by 16.5 years ## Testes ### Length >4.5 cm ## Secondary sexual characteristics ### Facial hair present on sides ### Mature male physique ### Gynecomastia disappears ## Peak height velocity: Age 13.5 (11.7-15.3 years) ## Basal growth occurs up until Tanner Stage 3 ### Basal Growth rate: 5.0 to 6.0 cm per year ### Boys who mature average time: 9.5 (7.1-11.9) cm/yr ### Boys who mature early: 10.3 (7.9-12.5) cm/yr ### Boys who mature late: 8.5 (6.3-10.7) cm/yr ## Pubertal Growth # Growth in Boys References: # Tanner (1966) Growth at Adolescence, Appleton # Marshall (1970) Arch Dis Child 45:13 # Tanner (1985) J Pediatr 107(3):317

By 18 he should have long had pubic and armpit hair. He may still have some growth in him but that is about over. Kinda scary you know his penis size.

It depends on how you personally define "boy" and "girl" - some people get confused because they struggle with other people's expectations and definitions and question their own gender because they don't conform to what others expect.

It is quite common for boys who do not conform to their local culture's defined expectations for boys to be accused of being "too feminine". In that case the issue is not really whether they are a girl but rather that others are trying to pigeonhole them. They are still very much a boy - just not what someone else defines as a boy.

Likewise many girls get labeled (derogatorily) as "tomboys" or male-wannabes just because their interests have been defined by others as being male. They are still very much female - just not what others expect them to be.

There is nothing you need to do. You cannot change who you are or your sexuality so just get used to it. About 10% of the population is gay, there is nothing wrong in it. You should live a full life just as any straight person should.

Wait until you have finished Puberty before you decide on relationships and partners.

Girls-

• hairy puss
• titties

No.

Don't be so emo.

Only when you are in a long term relationship with her. Otherwise it is not proper.

The care and keeping of you is a book for girls on growing up. It has a whole section on bras and which one fits you right and how to find the perfect fit.

yes after a certain time period but try to control it because you dont want to yell at a poor inisit perso seem mean and crazy

Symptoms puberty in male cats include spraying surfaces to mark their territory. Your little guy will become an escape artist as he tries to get outside to find a mate and he may start fights with other cats in the house. Males also get thick, fleshy pads on their cheeks that help protect them when they get into fights.

Puberty is when a child grows into an adult. Many changes occur such as: * Enlargement of the genitals (guys) * Development of breasts (girls) * "Wet" Dreams (guys) * Beginning menstrual cycles/periods (girls) * Acne (both genders) * Other stuff (research it) There is no "set" age to begin puberty and you can't "attain" it. It just happens as you grow into an adult.

When a child reaches puberty, in hindus, in some families a ritual called "munja" is performed. In some families, the father and son and mother and daughter have 'the talk'. :-)

Yes, you can use tampons if you are not sexually active.

Being sexually active means engaging in sexual activities that would potentially put you at risk from STD's and unintended pregnancy, that has no relation to whether or not you can use tampons. The idea that virgins cannot use tampons is false because there is absolutely no difference between the vagina of someone who is a virgin and that of someone who has had sex, sex doesn't change the vagina.

It is very normal, do not worry about it, if you are really lucky it may not start for another 2 or 3 years

Your hair will grow 4-8 inches in 9 months. It depends on how fast your hair grows

Not all girls do. But if they do, it's because they generally start puberty before boys. Ever been called immature by a girl? That's why. She has "matured" a couple of years before you.

Haha ! Hi dude this is Cole and yes we shave our pubic hair ;)

Please help me!

I am 16 years old and I still can't ejaculate.... Why can't I. It doesnt make sense.
