Puberty is basically when your body starts changing from the body of a child to the body of a woman (or man for boys). It's nothing to worry about it happens to everyone. You should ask your mother to sit down and talk with you about it. Puberty usually begins around age 11-17 depending.

I think your mom should give you some more details. Puberty is when a girl's body starts going through changes which will make her a woman. She will start her period, notice her breasts getting bigger and hips getting wider. She will also see more hair in her armpits and pubic area. This is a time when you may also see a growth spirt. Boys also go through puberty in their own way, but it starts a little later then girls. They get taller, and more muscular and their voice deepens. Have a talk with your mom, its a confusing time and she will be of great help to you as you go through these changes.

[Social Studies Geek]

Puberty is the period of time when children rapidly change biologically, psychologically, socially and cognitively. In other words, girls start to grow into women and boys into men. Puberty in females usually happens between the ages of 9 and 14. Male puberty usually occurs while he is 10 to 17 years of age.

No one can say exactly when a girl will get her first menstrual period, but usually girls will get it some time during puberty. Some girls start puberty at age 9 or 10 where others may start as late as age 15 or 16. Each girl goes at her own pace. So don't think that it's a bad thing or that something is wrong if your friends start puberty a little earlier/later than you.At the beginning of puberty, you'll notice that your breasts are developing and you're starting to grow a little hair under your arms. Hair also will grow on your genitals (pubic hair). In some girls, the time from the beginning of puberty to getting the first menstrual period may take only 6 months, where as for other girls, it may take longer and can take up to 3 years. Another sign is vaginal discharge fluid (sort of like mucus) that a girl might see or feel on her underwear. This discharge usually begins about 6 months to a year before a girl gets her first period. Every girl is different, and there is a wide range of normal development during puberty.All I can say is that you should be patient, it will happen when your body is ready.Good luck
