Yeah, I mean, really, at what age do your fingers start to grow?  Your penis starts to grow at the same time the rest of your body starts to grow.  Now, that said, as you hit puberty, certain changes will occur that may make it seem like it is growing more.  For instance, your testicles will drop, you will develop pubic hair, etc.  But it's not like you hit 13 and all of the sudden you're packing some serious weapon...it's a gradual process.  A hint, if you are overweight, your penis will appear smaller, so lose that weight!

Puberty normally occurs in a series of five stages (Tanner stages) that typically begin within the ages of 8 and 13 for girls and 9 and 14 for boys. Puberty is consider early (precocious) if it occurs before the age of 8 years in girls and 9 years in boys. And puberty is considered late or delayed if it has not begun prior to the age of 13 years for girls and 14 years for boys. Recent studies have shown that puberty is occurring at an increasingly earlier age in children though.\nSo the answer to your question will be no.

Personally, I think you should be slightly concerned about this. Yes, while it's true that puberty occurs earlier now than in years gone by, 8 is still very young. Pubic hair is usually te second stage of puberty - initially there is a growth spurt, followed by pubic hair, axillary hair, breast buds, and finally menstruation. Most young girls won't start developing pubic hair until around the age of 11. I would recommend that your take your daughter to her paediatrician/GP for a checkup, and possibly a referral to a specialist.

Listen, absolutely nothing to worry about. People tend to mature at different stages in life. It is true that most people start puberty at age 12-13, but I know of people who started at 16 and they are just fine. \n\nIt is all about hormones, when they kick in, puberty starts. Your hormones wil kick in, it is a matter of time. Be patient, I know it can be a little odd and perhaps even embarrassing, but it will happen. On the physical side, again nothing to worry about, you are still within the normal range. If you turn 16 and u did not hit puberty yet, then you might want to visit a doctor.

It depends on when you start puberty.  But usually between 12 and 15 guys start to shave.  You should start shaving if hair is noticeable, at first you probably won't have to shave every day, maybe every other day or once a week.  But if others are noticing your hair then you definitely should start.  You should just go to your parents and tell them that you want to start shaving and ask them to take you to the store to get a razor and shaving cream (or an electrical razor if you would prefer that, but frankly I prefer the normal razors).  I started shaving when I was 14. Good luck with that.

Some of the answers are not very fair, because many of us have measured puberty by our peers progression of same,those who have told you it starts at various stages are correct, give yourself time you are still very young, you say you have arm and thigh hair,so you see your on the way.  Remember this question in a few years when you have run out of razor blades.....good luck,and stop worrying..

Puberty is the stage of physical development where a child's body matures to adulthood, and they develop adult sexual traits and charachteristics. \n\nAdolesence is the same phase of development but refers more to the age range during this change, there is no actal physical stage to it rather it is the tranistory period.\n\nPuberty refers to the process of physical changes by which a child's body becomes an adult body capable of reproduction. Growth accelerates in the first half of puberty and reaches completion by the end. Body differences between boys and girls before puberty are almost entirely restricted to the genitalia. During puberty major differences of size, shape, composition, and function develop in many body structures and systems. The most obvious of these are referred to as secondary sex characteristics. In a strict sense, the term puberty refers to the bodily changes of sexual maturation rather than the psychosocial and cultural aspects of adolescent development.\n\nAdolescence is the period of psychological and social transition between childhood and adulthood. Adolescence largely overlaps the period of puberty but its boundaries are less precisely defined and it refers as much to the psychosocial and cultural characteristics of development during the teen years as to the physical changes of puberty. Children and young adolescents near the average age of puberty are sometimes referred to as peripubescent in medical literature.

This is an average...not everyone develops at this rate:\n\nAt 10 and 1/2 - 11:  Most girls begin puberty with breast enlargement, but some start with the appearance of pubic hair.\nAt 11-12:  The average girl begins pubic hair development between ages 11 and 12, usually within about six months of starting breast development. The hair begins along the lips of the vagina (labia majora), becomes darker, courser and curlier, and spreads upward onto the pubic mound (symphysis pubis.) \n\nhttp://www.teengrowth.com/index.cfm?action=info_article&ID_article=1363&category=body&catdesc=Body&subdesc=Breast

Try studying your text book for a more complete answer.  Basically, the release of the sexual hormones like estrogen promote the growth of breasts and onset of ovulation and menstruation.  Hair will appear in the pubic area and under the armpits.  The body takes on more of a feminine shape, with wider hips and a narrower waist.

During the seventh week of gestation the genitals are formed, until then a foetus's gender can not be visually determined.  It continues to develop throughout the gestation period.  The development then slows down until puberty, then the genitals begin to change to become like those of adults.  This usually happens between 10 and 14 in boys and takes 3-6 years to reach it's full size.

You should be 25 so you're done with puberty and have a little more life experience!

male puberty can begin anywhere between the ages of 10-12.  for me, i was 12 and the first sign of the onset of puberty, for me, was the sprouting of pubic hair.

Females usually stop growing earlier than boys. Females reach their growth maturity (stop growing) around the ages of 18-20. Males on the other hand tend to stop growing in their early 20's (20-24). However, some people mature quicker than others, and some are 'late bloomers'. In general when puberty stops, we stop growing. \n\nhttp://www.teenadviceonline.org/archive/41056.html
