Female puberty is a stage when a girl's body matures into adulthood, typically occurring between the ages of 8 and 14. This process is primarily driven by an increase in hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. Key changes include breast development, the growth of pubic and underarm hair, and the onset of menstruation, signaling fertility. Girls also experience growth spurts, and their bodies develop more curves as fat distribution shifts. Emotional changes, such as mood swings and heightened sensitivity, are common. Puberty varies for each individual, and the timing can be influenced by genetics, health, and environmental factors.
