__** Physical Changes in Girls **__ To Our Home Page Unlike boys, girls tend to start puberty a bit earlier. They most commonly start at the ages of 12-15. Physical changes in girls can be quite embarrassing at times. But if treated well you have nothing worry about. **__Hair In Places__** Like boys during puberty, arm, leg, pubic and underarm hair also set in the early stages. Girls do shave their legs at a certain age. Most girls don't have the greasy hair problem because their heads are used to getting washed often. If you choose to shave your hair either on the arms, legs or pubic area keep in mind it will grow back thicker and longer. __** The Menstrual Cycle **__ The menstrual cycle (also known as a period), is when an egg passes out of the ovary and through the fallopian tubes to the vaginal canal. An egg is a microscopic particle that, when connected with a sperm cell, make a baby. This egg and millions of others, develop in the ovary. A girl has two ovaries. When an ovary releases an egg the lining of the uterus builds up with blood and tissue lining. If an egg doesn't fertilise the blood and tissue lining all go with the egg cell and comes out of the vagina in blood.

__ Breast size increases!! __ For girls when they start to hit puberty their bodys starts growing lumps on the chest called breasts. These can produce milk when there is a baby growing in their Uterus and when it is born the breast milk is normally used to feed the baby.
