Puberty lasts for several years. It is the stage of your
life when your body is changing from the body of a child to
the body of an adult. Hormones, which are natural chemicals
in your body, are orchestrating these alterations in your
body.

During
puberty, one breast might grow larger than the other;
but don’t worry, if there is any difference in size
nobody will be able to notice. Once your breasts start
growing, the differences will most likely be so slight.
And your breasts will even out before they are finished
developing. But if they don’t, no need to worry since
many women’s breasts don’t match each other exactly.

It
might take a while, perhaps even a year, for your
periods to become regular every month. During the first
year, your cycle may be as short as three weeks or as
long as six weeks. Even after your periods become
regular, exercise, stress, or a change in diet could
throw it of track. If you are sexually active and skip a
period, talk to your health care provider immediately.

Suicide
is the fourth leading cause of death for persons between
10 and 14 years of age and the third leading cause of
death for those 15 to 24 years old. In fact, one survey
of high school students reported that 60 percent had
thought about committing suicide and nearly 10 percent
had tried. Actions or talk of suicide is a cry for help
in itself. Most teenagers are looking for acceptance,
understanding, attention and love.

Teenage
girls are increasingly expressing dissatisfaction with
their bodies, although more often than not they are
properly proportioned. Much of the blame is being
directed at media. This low body image among young women
is leading to an increase in the number of teenage girls
with eating disorders. Two disorders are bulimia and
anorexia nervosa. Someone with bulimia will eat a huge
amount of food and then vomit or use laxatives to keep
from gaining weight. This is also called bingeing and
purging. Someone with anorexia nervosa will avoid food
completely in fear of looking fat.

average age for a girl to try alcohol is 13-years-old.
It is the drug most often used by 12- to 17-year-olds.
Although most parents think peer pressure is the main
reason teenagers drink, 79 percent of teens say they
drink to get drunk or because it "feels good”.
