What age do boys puberty start. PLEASE?

Question

i have no hair on my armpits,chest, and etc.

Answer 1

starts at about 12-13 consider yourself lucky if you end up with no armpit hair.

Answer 2

There is no set age. In recent years onset of puberty has started coming in over a wider range of years with some starting as young as say, 8 while others may be 17 or 18. For most though I would say puberty begins somewhere between 11 and 13. Also, remember that it's not all at once. Even as the process begins things take time to develop. Finally, not everyone gets a lot of hair growth. I'm not sure how old you are but odds are things are already in the works. You just need to be paitient. Oh and do eat right, take care of yourself, etc. That can help.

Answer 3

when i was 14 i started, but boys can start showing signs from 12 to 17 surprisingly. If you haven't shown signs, thats ok, because you eventually will. I was short up until 13 and now i'm the tallest out of all my friends now that i'm going through puberty. Don't worry though, it's different for everybody! i still don't have hair under my armpits but i have hair in different places. It's weird like that. hope my answer was of help.

Answer 4

Well, girls get a head start on puberty - and growing taller - because they start these changes between the ages of 8 and 13. Most boys, on the other hand, don't begin until between the ages of 10 and 15. So that's why girls are often taller than boys during that time.

Many boys may catch up - and even grow taller than girls. But it's also important to remember that your genetics play a role in height. So if your mom and dad are tall, you're more likely to be tall. And if your mom and dad are kind of short, you may be short, too. But nothing is definite.

Answer 5

14 or 15

Answer 6

My body hair growth started around 10 and 11. Yet the otherside of male puberty (if you know what I mean) started at age 7.

Answer 7

Puberty, the natural progression from a child-like physique to an adult body, begins with hormonal signaling between the gonads (the testes in the case of boys) and a part of the brain called the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland. In boys, puberty usually begins between 9 and 14 years of age in the United States. (This is an important point to make as ethnicity apparently influences the average age at which puberty begins both for boys and girls.) If there is evidence of testicular enlargement before the 9th birthday or no evidence of pubertal changes by the 14th birthday, then those are reasons for concern and must be evaluated.

The first physical change that is noted in a boy is the enlargement of the testes and the lengthening of the penis. In the second stage of pubertal development, the skin over the scrotum begins to thin and redden and there is the beginning of a sparse amount of pubic hair at the base of the penis. Because most parents are no longer seeing their children fully undressed in early adolescence, these very early changes in boys may not be noticeable to the parent.

The third stage of puberty begins when there is increased amount of pubic hair that is noticeably coarser and darker than before. It is at this point that the peak height velocity or 'growth spurt' usually begins. This is the most obvious physical change and is typically about two years after the onset of the very first signs of puberty. The 'growth spurt' lasts about two to three years. A boy achieves about 25% of his final adult height during the growth spurt, and he will gain an average of 3.5 inches a year during this time. This compares to 2.3 inches per year in the prepubertal male. Another common occurrence in the third stage of puberty is the development of breast tissue. This is called gynecomastia, and it can be on one or both sides. For most boys this is a passing change that will spontaneously improve if the breast tissue is less than 1.5 inches across.

After the onset of the third stage of puberty, boys also gain in muscle mass, the voice deepens, acne frequently becomes bothersome. The fourth and fifth stages of pubertal development are marked by increased in pubic, axillary, and body hair as well as further enlargement of the penis and testes. For boys there is also a 'strength' spurt related to the increased muscle mass. Final height is usually achieved during the final stages of puberty. A look at the growth charts for boys ages two to eighteen can give you some sense of where your son fits in with his peers with regard to height and weight.
