When did you enter puberty?

As far as I remember when I was 12. My mother explained everything to me, but I was still a child and nothing was clear to me. It was too early at the time, so my mom took me to the doctor.

14 ½ when I got my period. I walked everywhere, swam and ran some, I wasn't a super athletic. But more active than most. Don't remember growing pubic hair nor hair on my underarms. What I did notice was that darker hair on my legs that I wanted to shave started to grow and of course I was interested in boys.

I entered puberty late into 11 and by 12 for sure. That's when first I masturbated after being diapered for the night.

I’d say starting around 12 for me.

Would you believe I don’t really know when! I wish I had put aside nerves and invested more in remembering it all.

I have always considered I was later than most boys but the older and more confident I have become the more I think that was just an inferiority complex. I’ve posted before the embarrassment of the school changing rooms because I was worried I would be teased by the more mature boys about my non hairy body and penis. In reality that didn’t happen much if at all So maybe I wasn’t behind the curve to coin a term!

I was 13 or 14 when I started to feel certain sensations from touching myself, getting an erection or a general interest in my and others‘ bodies. I think my first orgasm was at 15 or 16. Early erections were scary things until I worked out how to get rid of them!

Started late 12 and really going at 13 -14. I was a very late bloomer.

I started growing pubic hair just after my 9th birthday. As for armpit hair, it was a few months later. By the age of 10, my pubic hair was quite a bit for my age.

Another question was when did you first get hard? For me, it was about 9½ and yes I did masturbate myself and I did cum in about 5 minutes.

I was 13 when I started getting pubic hair and noticing the male physique. I had always masturbated, but came for first time at 13, a month or so before 14th . BIRTHDAY. I got armpit hair about same time. I didn't get facial or chest hair until early twenties.

As I said in another post about this subject, just worded a little different. It involved when you first started getting pubic hair. It was shortly after my 9th birthday.

Around 12

At 12 years old my penis got considerably bigger like a mans and my balls started getting hanging lower. At this point in time I had my exams with my brother and mom in the room so you can imagine when the doctor checked my balls and I got erect and my brother and mom saw it when I was laying on the table, next year comes and ask my doctor for separate rooms and my brother also agrees. That incident was never spoken of again but i’m sure everyone got the message. So that was pretty normal but then at 13 I also got erect again and started oozing precum in my underwear that my doctor could see when he examined my balls. After getting erect two times and even oozing precum, I knew I was really into going to the doctors but was also very embarassed by that. Next time when i went at 14 I tried my best to not get hard and only kept a semi, but when he pulled down my underwear I came. Did not like puberty for that!

I entered puberty at 12. The first sign was my penis grew in both length and circumference. A few months after I turned 12, I developed several strands of almost clear straight pubic hair directly above the middle of my penis. It was barely noticeable. The hair quickly darkened and eventually began to spread wider and became more dense to form my pubic bush over time. My armpit hair started at 13. It came in dark to begin with in the center of the pit and spread up and down over time. A few months later I started to get facial hair at each side of my upper lip which gradually filled in. At 15, chin hair started to appear which was soon followed by sideburns.

I was 12, when all the changes started…voice got funky followed by my boy parts getting bigger then the pubic hair…I really hated my voice and the hairs…

12.

15 I started shaving.

I am amazed at how many people remember the details of them entering puberty. I have no idea when I started growing bigger genitals or getting hair. In fact, I'm still waiting to grow bigger genitals. 😉 I can narrow down the time frame and give a general window of age, but that's about it. I know I did not get an erection during my sports physical at age 11, but I did get one at the age of 13. (Soooo embarrassing!) When I was 12, I actually didn't play sports at school because I could not bear the thought of going back to my female pediatrician for an exam. I was afraid of getting a boner and too embarrassed that she had already seen me naked. At 13 was when I made my parents take me to a male GP. I know for sure I was masturbating at the age of 13, but don't remember exactly when I started. So, I'm guessing I started puberty somewhere around 12 yo.

Maybe 11-12! I just knew that I was ahead of friends my own age. The locker room was a surprise…

I started my period when I was 14. I was a late bloomer. So I would have say right around there is when I noticed more pubic hair. I did start shaving my legs when I was 12 though

Significantly later than my peers, I was fifteen when hair first began sprouting, nineteen before i began shaving,

I never hit Puberty i don't even know her !

I think I discovered my first hair. I think my nocturnal emissions started around this time. I didn't know what it was, but it was sure slimy & smelled funny.

Breast buds and a little pubic hair at 12. Period at 13. An adult cousin would make me shower with her 6 yr old daughter to help her bathe and to save water. We never got much bathing done because her daughter would constantly poke me in the breasts the whole time. Luckily I didn't live with them that long.

If my little cousin hadn't started poking me in my breasts, I probably wouldn't remember what age I started. If it had happened once, I'm sure I would have forgotten. It was every day that I lived with them.

Like most guys posting here, I started to change at the age of 12. I was definitely not prepared for it because I didn't have any older brothers and my folks didn't talk about things like that. I've posted the experience here before but definitely my most awkward, embarrassing moment from that time was when I had my first physical exam with the pediatrician and I got a rock-hard erection when he told me to take off my underwear for the genital inspection. It didn't help the embarrassment that the doctor was a friend of the family and I was in the same classroom as his son.

Hmm I dont remember exactly.. Ejaculation begin and 13 I think, and pubic hair grow to 13 to 14? My lust for sex begin at 13, but I was very shy with girls.. At 16 years old, I masturbate constantly, lol..

I was twelve when I started getting pubic hair. It was also the time I was shimming up a basketball pole to retrieve a stuck ball when my penis started twitching . It felt like a lightning bolt hit me. In the weeks that followed I started playing with myself to see if I could duplicate the feelings. I did manage to ejaculate….OMG, it was incredible. Every day after that I took a shower.

With me, it's hard to tell. I started having erotic erections around five, from mutual enema play with a neighbor, dry ejaculatory spasms at seven or so, first liquid ejaculation around ten. Didn't grow any body hair at all until my mid twenties, and that was very sparse. What little hair I did have was IPL removed thirty or so years ago.

I:was a late bloomer, 16 years old!

Probably 12-13

Because I was a late bloomer, so my pediatrician was giving my mom the play-by-play each year during my well child exams, I remember my progress pretty clearly. First, there was nothing at all started when I was 12 and 13. At 14, he brought out the orchidometer, showing her that my testicles finally had started to grow, putting me at Tanner Stage 2, and ending the talk of hormone treatment. At 15, he said my penis had gotten longer, but since I had gotten heavier, much of the extra length was hidden by extra fat. I also had just the first bit of fine, straight pubic hair right above my penis and the first tiny bit of underarm hair, so he said I was at Stage 3. Only at 16, when they could see that I had a fair amount of curly pubic hair and normal underarm hair, and I had slimmed back down a bit, so I finally had what looked like an adult sized penis, did he say I was in Stage 4 and had caught up.

For me, it was shortly after I turned 12 years old. I remember seeing my pubic hairs for the very first time as I turned on the faucet to shower. They were few and very fine. It was a Thursday night around 9 PM. I just can't remember if it was October or November 1979. I still wasn't masturbating regularly at that time - that happened about 16 months later.

Around the age of 12. At this age, I had pronounced pubic hair and my testicles grew larger.
