Puberty is a continuous process, a transition period from childhood to adulthood. It is an important stage of psychological development, related to physical growth. Girls usually enter puberty earlier than boys, typically between the ages of ten and twelve, while boys start between the ages of twelve and fourteen. Menstruation marks the onset of puberty for girls, while boys experience nocturnal emissions as a sign. During this period, rapid physical development occurs, and attention should be paid to nutrition and personal hygiene.
