Puberty and Adolescence

Indeed.

It is completed when you have finished growing and have your sexual characteristics. Usually around 16 in girls and 18 in boys, but this varies a lot. It can be earlier or later.

GnRH released from the hypothalamus triggers the start of puberty in females.

Yes, he is 17 so he obviously is going through puberty.

it depends on her teen growth, because she is in her prime time of puberty, you will see a lot of changes happening to her. Don't worry, but there is a 50/50 chance of her breasts growing bigger or stay the same.

Many changes happen during puberty, and mental changes are definitely worth knowing about.

You will begin to think more and more about sex and other girls/boys (possibly in sexual ways). Along with this, you may also become stressed or anxious more easily than when you were pre-pubescent, as hormones take a hold of your body, and affect the way your brain works.

Apart from this, the only other real mental changes, are the normal stresses and worries of growing up, such as worrying about body image, whether someone loves you, etc.

1. Voice becomes deeper and will eventually 'break'. 2. Growth (he will increase in height and body size). 3. Facial hair will grow. 4. Hair will grow under the arms and also around the groin. 5. Shoulders will become wider. Please note: the above changes may not necessarily happen in that particular order.

Physically, men are attracted to women because they have curves. A man might not realize it, but he is attracted to a woman's curves because this shows that the woman is capable of carrying a child which gives men all the more reason to become attracted to and mate with a woman. Another reason is testosterone, male hormones. This hormone makes massive changes to the way a man thinks. When a man is with a woman, his brain goes "She is a mate, she is able to carry a child, she is smaller, you must protect her, she will comfort you and the child..." It is automatically the mans job to to protect a woman. Women also tend to take care of men, so this is another reason why men are attracted to women. They protect the woman in exchange for her "tender lovin' care".

Not without drug use I think.

If you are worried because of your late starting of Puberty then visit your Doctor and ask for hormone replacement treatment to help you catch up.

these changes are necessary, otherwise we will remain under developed. also we will bot be able to reproduce without puberty.

Definitely. Take a pregnancy test.

since im assuming ur a male and concious of your penis size, here are some basic foundations.

Penis size is actually not that big of a deal as most men have enough "stuff" to please a woman already.

The average size of and erect penis is 6.5 inches.

If you really do want to enlargen you penis, try jelqing. This is a method of which with and erect penis, you create and OK sign with your hands and grasp the base of your penis with the "circle" (thumb and forefinger). Then slowly, slide your ok sign form the base to the tip of you penis. Ensure that a bit of pressure is maintained during this excercise. I do recommend using lubrication. This excercise works because it channels the blood near the top of your penis, enlargening the "spongy" chambers in it.

Also, use this same techinque but in an upward, downward, left and right direction.

happy enlarging :)

You sweat more during puberty if that is what you mean. It's different for everyone how much.

No. Actually, if you eat too much meat, this would delay it because you need a well balenced diet to go through puberty.

it affects your identity by

*growing

*more hair

*voice breaks and lots more

Testosterone- boys

estrogen- girls

This changes from person to person. That is why some people's voice changes a lot while other people's voice remains some what same.

Some people have periods earlier than others. you might just have a sickness or something. usually people don't have cramps for two weeks before the period, only a day or two.

A wet dream is by definition a nocturnal emission which is essentially the ejaculation of semen during your sleep. You may not even be dreaming when this occurs. It can happen as a result of your erect penis rubbing against the bedding. Accompanying dreams however are usually sexual but not exclusively so, they can be about anything although the subjects frequently involve strong feelings such as fear or excitement.

Unfortunately, there is no way to speed puberty up. Everyone develops at different rates and ages, so some boys may have a broken voice by 14, whereas others may still be breaking at 18!

Yes, you do get knots in your nipples when your growing through puberty!

Your boobs get larger, and they become so sore! It hurts, but that's life.

Don't worry it'll all be over before you no it....

believe me!..Ive been here...
