Re: so can you be done with puberty at 14? -

Yes, puberty can start as a very young age. Between the age of 10-14 most girls and boys will begin to see a change in there body. The changes will start at different times and take place at different rates. Not everyone starts puberty between the ages of 10 and 14, some people start younger, and some much later. Some children's/teens puberty changes take place in 2 years, and some as long as 4 years. In most cases, they start between ages 7 and 13 in girls and ages 9 and 15 in boys.
Best wishes,

Even though puberty may start early, I doubt it would end at that early of an age. Puberty lasts for years, most of the time ending around the early twenties for girls. I know the age for starting puberty is getting younger & younger, but it would still take the same amount of time to fully develop.

Puberty can start early. I know a young girl who got her period at 8, and started wearing bra's at the tender age of 9. She's going to be 12 this upcoming year.
It takes time to develop, and many young girl's and woman go through puberty well into their teen years. We all develop at different rates; no two people are going to be the same.

Honestly, I started getting boobs in Kindergarden. And, I was really skinny. Then, I got pubic hair (Down below) in 3rd grade. Period in 4th grade. Pubic hair under arms and on legs in 6th grade.
My point is.. I was ALL SPACED OUT. Lol but, I think as the above posters said... you don't end puberty for a while. Lol puberty also has to deal with your organs and bones growing and stuff. Not just sex organs and hair, and all of that nasty stuff. :P lol But, anyways... you can still continue puberty if you started going through it at a young age.

well I don't exactly know when I started exactly. My mom says officially I had started when I was in second grade. My voice started to change at 4. I had already lost 2 of my baby teeth at 3. When I was 4 I had a growth spurt from this age I had hair growth on my legs way before this age and had to use a deodorizer and had orgasms. I had a lot of things happened early but my weight was so low. I've always had a very little fat. I started growing boobs at 6 going 7 in second grade. Grew pubic hair the same time I got more leg hair at 7 and that may I got acne I had reached only 4 inches shorter than my adult height at 8 going on 9. I was completely done with my height by 11 about but my growth spurt ended at 8 going on 9. I had my period at 8 going on 9. I had regular periods at 11 and my breasts grew to their full size at 14. I got pit hair late at 11 and got hairier til 14. I never grew hips. I was about XX lbs at 11 and stayed that way... Also another fact by 9 I had no baby teeth. It seemed at 14 everything just was in and done... I had emotional changes at 14 I wasn't so depressed I didn't identify as a boy as much as I did as child I had a better self esteem as I grew up about my body I was more outgoing etc my adult personality kind of came in that year. Also my sexuality became apparent but it was there for like 2 years it just completely formed that year. So yea...........

Your body will continue to change throughout your life. Such as breasts will grow and shrink, and they'll be sensitive. But, after a while, you'll begin to notice not much of anything is happening anymore.

I doubt you're finished with puberty so early. I probably started puberty around 11, I first got my period when I was 12, and didn't really have boobs until I was almost 16. I think there are still some things going on, and most women continue to have changes that are related to puberty as late as into their mid-twenties. However, like Shannon said, your body will continue to change as you go through life.
