Given the estimate of 6-4 BC for Jesus' birth, and assuming that Mary was betrothed around the customary age and that she conceived Jesus shortly after, the year of her birth was estimated to be around 20 BC.
That would have made her around 14-16 years old when Jesus was born.

It is generally accepted she was 15. At 14 a young girl who was dedicated to God as a child and had been serving in the local Synagogue or the Temple would be betrothed to a man in the community. It would also support her being a virgin. She went with Joseph to Bethlehem as his wife which she became after a year of betrothal and a wedding feast.

She may have only just begun menses, by tradition this was the time women were married/engaged/betrothed. Probably between 14 and 16

she was a young teen, somewhere around 13, 14, 15 years old, but it's possible that she might have been younger, maybe 12?we don't know for sure.
