As you become a teenager, your current body will go through changes to become an adult body. People often feel too shy or embarrassed to talk about these changes, but everyone goes through them. They are a natural and necessary part of growing up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These changes will look different for each person, but remember that they happen to everyone. These changes are called puberty. For girls, puberty usually starts between ages 8-13 and ends by age 17.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s important to remember that although your body and hormones are changing, you’re still you<\/strong>. You don’t need to change who you are or stop doing the things you love — these changes are just part of growing into the next version of yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
