Puberty is an inevitable physiological process that usually begins with the appearance of secondary sexual characteristics. What it is? The most common are: increased hairline on the pubis and under the armpits, as well as pigmentation of the genitals (external). Everyone knows that such changes in the life of a girl begin a couple of years earlier than that of a boy, and in the future girls develop more intensively.
So, what you need to know about the female body? Puberty begins at the age of 10-12 years, but significant changes with the child's body occur as early as eight years, when there is a smooth rounding of the hips and the protrusion of the paralosal circle. When reaching the age of ten, the first hair breaks in the pubic region and under the armpits, the growth of the mammary glands is noted, the first menstruation can come at 11-12 years old, and at the age of 15-16 the menstrual cycle is completely normalized, pubic hair growth continues, the mammary glands increase in size . In addition to sexual characteristics, the girl has a change in growth, or rather, its strengthening, which stops only when the age of 18 is reached.
What happens to the male body? It is practically impossible to predict and predict puberty, but most often its onset is observed at 12-14 years, and secondary sexual characteristics often occur a little earlier. So, in 10-11 years, visual enlargement of the testicles and penis was recorded in size; at the age of 11-12, pigmentation of the scrotum and increased growth of pubic hair were noticed; in 12-13 years, intensive growth continues; at the age of 13-14, there is a sharp mutation of the voice and the development of a muscle silhouette, as well as the appearance of hair under the armpit and under the nose; for 14-15 years, the first uncomfortable pollutions are characteristic; but by the age of 18-20 puberty is completed. Boys also grow up, growing by 12 cm in a year, and so up to 14 years old, a complete stop of growth is observed only by 20 years.
Of course, the above indicators are not the same for all adolescents, but still they are as close to normal. But sometimes there are cases when late puberty is observed. It is necessary to find out why such an anomaly occurs.
Lagging puberty can be of a clinical nature, and in such cases it is a sign of many endocrine disorders, as an option, with reduced function of the sex glands and pituitary gland. This anomaly is often accompanied by a delay or increase in growth, as well as visible deviations in mental development and a weakening of the emotional state.
What is the reason for this pathology? As a rule, late puberty is associated with the direct development of the fetus in the womb, as well as with the action on it of all external and emotional stimuli. A complete diagnosis of such an anomaly helps answer the question of how to accelerate puberty. The approach to treatment should be individual. It is necessary to clearly understand that hasty treatment can cause side effects, and the complete absence of treatment entails a number of more serious disorders that can develop the most unpredictable psychological and physical disorders in an adult. Very often, the chosen treatment regimen includes drug therapy, as well as a set of physical exercises.
If abnormal puberty is suspected, it is necessary, first of all, to donate blood for a chromosome study, which allows diagnosing anemia, diabetes mellitus and other diseases that can cause delays in puberty. Then the doctor prescribes a lot of additional examinations and tests that can identify pathology.
