  • 1 answers

  • Increase in Height: The most apparent change during puberty is the sudden increase in height. Long bones grow rapidly. Hence, the height of a person increases rapidly during this period. Initially, girls grow faster than boys but ultimately boys are usually taller than girls. The maximum height is attained by 18 years of age.
  • Change in Body Shape: The body of a boy becomes more muscular. His shoulders become wide and the waist becomes narrow. The body of a girl becomes wider below waist and narrower at the shoulder.
  • Voice Change: A boy’s voice becomes deep, and the childlike voice is first replaced by a hoarse voice. This happens because the voice is said to crack. Gradually, the voice becomes deep. The change in voice happens because voice box in a boy becomes larger. Girl’s voice is usually high pitched.
  • Increased Activity of Sweat and Sebaceous Glands: Secretion from sweat and sebaceous glands increases during adolescence. Due to this, some teenagers may suffer from acne and pimples.
  • Development of *** Organs: In boys, testes begin to produce sperms. Testis and ***** develop completely. In girls, ovaries enlarge and eggs begin to mature. Ovaries start releasing a mature egg.
  • Reaching Mental, Intellectual and Emotional Maturity: These changes also have a profound effect on a person’s way of thinking. Teenagers spend more time on thinking than earlier. Thus, many rapid changes in the body may create a sense of insecurity in most of the teenagers. But, teenagers should not worry because these are natural changes. They will definitely go away with time.
