Physical+changes+for+boys+and+girl

​During puberty, physical changes are the most obvious signs, With girls the main points are:
 * **weight** - mostly on the hips and thighs.
 * **breast development** - starts off with just swelling under the nipples, then the whole breast starts to get bigger.
 * **periods** - they happen about once a month. It happens because an egg travels from the ovary down the fallopian tube to the uterus, and the uterus prepares for it by lining up extra blood and tissue. Then if the egg isnt fertilised then the egg keeps going, taking blood and tissue with it. This is what a period is, it usually lasts around 4-7 days and you should wear a pad or tampon while its happening.
 * **pubic hair** - you will grow jhair in your pubic area.
 * **pimples** - this is a normal part of going through puberty, to avoid the bad looks just wash yourself, keep good hygene and avoid greasy foods.
