These are the changes that occur during puberty for boys and girls.
Boys Girls
Adam’s apple becomes bigger Breast start to grow bigger

When does these changes start to happen in boys and girls?
Changes start to happen to young boys age ranges from 12 to 14 years old. Girls, on
the other hand, start to experience puberty earlier. They begin to observe changes
when they are 10 to 12 years old.
However, keep in mind that each person has different growth rate. Your growth
spurt may begin earlier than your classmates. Some may begin later than the rest of
the class. Periods of growth also differs from individuals. Some may longer or shorter
than others.
What caused these changes?
It starts in our Brain, specifically the pituitary gland which lets out pituitary
hormones to the reproductive system which causes it to release sex hormones and
bring about the changes in our body.
