Puberty Physical Changes Worksheet

Read the information, then answer the questions. Puberty is a normal process, but it does not happen at the same time or in exactly the same way for everyone. Use respectful language and remember that no one should be pressured to share personal experiences.

What happens during puberty?

Puberty is a stage of development when hormones help the body mature. The timing and order of changes vary. Many people grow taller, develop body hair and notice more body odour or oilier skin. The voice may deepen or change, sometimes cracking for a while. Breasts may develop; periods may begin for some people. The penis and testicles may grow, and erections or wet dreams can occur. These are examples, not a checklist everyone follows. Changes happen gradually, and bodies develop at different rates. Washing regularly, wearing clean clothes and using deodorant if desired can help with body odour. Gentle skin care may help with spots. A trusted adult, school health professional or health provider can answer questions or help if a change causes worry or discomfort.
