Puberty (pyoo-ber-tee) - refers to the
time when your body begins process
of growth and change.
---is derived from the latin word
pubertas, which means adulthood.
---is the process of physical
changes by which a child’s body
becomes adult body capable of
reproduction

---is initiated by hormone signals
from the brain to the gonads (the
ovaries and testes).
---The onset of puberty in boys
usually occurs between ages of 11
– 13 and in girls between 9 – 13,
two years later in boys

Adolescence begins after about 13th year and
continues through the teenage years.
Estrogen (Es-truh-jun) – a hormone that is released
by the ovaries. Estrogen causes the breast and
female reproductive organs to develop.it also helps
begin a process of the female reproductive system
called the menstrual (MEN-sroo-ul) cycle.
Testosterone (tes-TAHS-tuh-rohn) – this hormone
deepens the voice and causes male reproductive
organs to develop.

Adolescence begins after about 13th
year and continues through the teenage
years.
Estrogen (Es-truh-jun) – a hormone that
is released by the ovaries. Estrogen
causes the breast and female
reproductive organs to develop.it also
helps begin a process of the female
reproductive system called the menstrual
(MEN-sroo-ul) cycle.

Testosterone (tes-TAHS-tuh-
rohn) – this hormone deepens
the voice and causes male
reproductive organs to
develop.

What triggers Puberty in Male and
Female
The hypothalamus gland located in the
brain produces a hormone called
gonadotrophin. This hormone stimulates
the pituitary gland (situated also in the
brain) to emit the growth hormones,
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and
Luteinizing Hormone (LH).

When this hormones reach the
boy’s testes, they trigger the
production of the sex hormone,
testosterone, which initiates
puberty.

In girls, the same things happen.
When FSH and LH reach the ovaries,
they trigger the release of the female
sex hormones, estrogen and
progesterone. Estrogen initiates
puberty while progesterone prepares
the body for reproduction.

Boys and girls are characterized to
undergo several changes: physical,
emotional, mental and social.
