Puberty, Teenagers. Adolescence typically describes the years between ages 13 and 19 and can be considered the transitional stage from childhood to adulthood. However, the physical and psychological changes that occur in adolescence can start earlier, during the preteen or tween years (ages 9 through 12).
Puberty is the time in life when a young person starts to become sexually mature. In girls, puberty may start as early as 8 years of age, but it usually starts around 11 years of age. In boys, it begins around 12 years as age, but may start as early as 9 years of age. This is a process that goes on for several years.
