It involves accelerated physical growth and the development of the reproductive systems in girls and boys. Adolescence is the transitional period following puberty in which a teenager matures into an adult. It is characterized by increasing independence and cognitive growth.

There are no foods which help you to increase testosterone. Testosterone is produced naturally in the testes when you reach puberty regardless of what you eat.

What is the best way to inlarg breast?

Assuming you don't want to go with the surgical approach, there are hormonal and activity-related methods. I don't recommend hormonal supplementation, unless an estrogen level shows your baseline to be unusually low. Note that this also plays into women with very low body fat who have unusually high regimens of aerobic activity. Assuming a normal body weight (for women, 100 pounds plus 5 pounds for every inch height over 5 ft) and normal BMI (basal metabolic index) of over 23, your best bet is the activity approach. The best overall exercise are machines which use the forearm to press inwards towards the chest (different than chest or bench presses). Also good are bench/chest presses, or lying dumbbell presses, though these movements tend to incorporate more shoulder movements and can therefore tend to enlarge not only the breasts but the shoulders.

Is their average with arm pit hair at 11 years old?

Do you mean "does the average 11 year old (boy) have armpit hair?" If that is the question I'd say probably not. However puberty is a very variable process. The average age at which boys start puberty is 12 or 13 but the average range which is considered normal for puberty to begin is anything between 9 years of age and the late teens. The order in which boys go through the various stages of puberty can also be different for different boy. You have obviously started puberty fairly early and you can consider yourself lucky. Nearly all boys will have to go through puberty at some point and as you've started early you are likely to finish earlier too. So, you are unlikely to be the unfortunate 16 year old who other boys make fun of in the school showers for still having a childishly small penis, no pubic hair and a high pitched voice.

What stage of puberty are you at if you have pubic hair and it is spreading out towards your legs?

The stage of puberty is measured using the Tanner Scale. It looks at genital development (penis and testicles in boys) and pubic hair, and assigns a number 1-5 to each. From the time you were born until puberty starts you are P-1 (pubic hair) G-1 (genital development). Usually genital development begins first when the testicles start to get larger and hang lower. When this happens you are considered G-2 and if you don't have any hair yet you are G-2 P-1. So, when you start to get hair you are in P-2 (you might also be in G-2 or even G-3). If your hair is beginning to spread toward your legs you are in P-4 and most likely G-4 or 5. When your genitals are finished growing and you have all the hair your going to get (adult) you are G-5 P-5.

How long does it take for the vines to strangle the tree?

It depends on the vine and the tree type. An evergreen vine would be the strongest .Then a perennial vine. Then a annual vine. Trees can be hard wood or soft wood. I have seen a wisteria, grape, smilax, poison ivy and Virginia creeper vine at the base up to 12 inches in diameter. It will vary on many of these factors. To prevent it you need to put down a preemergent for any mature seeds it will drop. You will also need to remove it at the root ball. Being careful not to hurt the tree. Vines usually have airborial roots and areas where they crawl under the surface up to about 8 inches. They are hard to control. But as far as putting a time frame on it? Not possible to many aspects and circumstances to consider. Hope this helps.

I'm Rachel. I'm 15 and my boyfriend Jordan is 16. Jordan and I want to have a baby. I mean we're ready. He has a job and we have everything we need. Is this bad and is it illegal?

If he is of legal age in your state it is illegal for him to have sex with you.

I imagine you also have not asked your parents. You know, the people that you and the baby will live with until you are 18 or more. Until you are of legal age you are not allowed to move out or even see your boyfriend without their permission. And you need to sort out;

- who will stay home with the baby or can you afford daycare that can range from $100 a week to more than $800 a week for the care of a newborn.

- school is a must and can you solve it

-it's impossible to do homework while the baby need attention and screaming. They just don't lie there sleeping. Can you handle school, baby and homework on 3 hours of sleep

- does Jordan have a steady job and is it well paid since babies cost hundreds of thousands until they are out of college.

- who is paying for the birth and if the baby has complications. If you are on your parents health insurance the baby will not be. And the labor you and Jordan have to pay for. The average hospital bill is $5,000-$10,000 for a vaginal delivery. Add at least $2,000 if you need a c-section. These figures do not include the medical costs associated with nine months of prenatal visits, ultrasound costs and other lab costs. If your baby is born premature or with health problems, neonatal costs can range from a few thousand for a short stay to more than $200,000 if you baby is born more than 15 weeks early.

- You might not be able to get welfare if you counted on that since most likely will they also count your parents income since you live with them.

- a newborn will go through 300-400 diapers a month in the first months. This means $75-$125 a month just for diapers. If you can't breastfeed or the don't have enough milk you can add $100 a month to your budget for formula.

- The doctor will want to see the baby at least every third month which will cost and also vaccinations. That is a cost you have to add.

- the chance for the relationship to last is very minor at your age. Not something you want to hear I'm sure but that is what the numbers show.

I'm not listing all those things to discourage you but these are the facts you have to know, for your baby's and familyś sake. Having a baby at 15 is not like having one as an adult. You have to include your parents because you are dragging them into something they did not ask for. And don't forget college. Being sick of school is one thing but being sick of a no end job that don't pay enough when all your friends is getting good jobs or higher education really sucks (and this is for Jordan too). There is nothing you can do now you can't do later in life when you have a place of your own, a education and a job. What you and Jordan is feeling now is what many teens feel; you are in love and hormones make you want a baby. That does not mean it's a good idea to have it now. Having a crib does not mean this is a good time to be parents.

Will precocious puberty make you have sexual feelings?

Sexual feelings will arise, whether it occurs normally or very early, as in the case of precocious puberty. Any child entering puberty before the age of 8 in girls or 9 in boys, should be seen by a doctor to rule out brain tumor or other disease process that might be triggering early puberty. The reason why this is important is that growth stops once puberty concludes, so children with very early onset puberty tend to be shorter than their peers.

What is it like to wear panties?
