What is a pubety?

Puberty is the developmental stage during which a child's body transitions into adulthood, marked by physical, hormonal, and sexual maturity. It typically occurs between ages 9 and 14 for girls and 10 and 17 for boys, involving changes such as growth spurts, the development of secondary sexual characteristics, and the onset of menstruation in girls and sperm production in boys. Emotional and social changes also accompany this period, as individuals navigate new identity and relationships.
