There is weight gain, particularly on the hips. This does not mean you have to start a diet to lose weight. In fact you would be unhealthy if you did not put on some weight. It just means that you are getting a womanly shape. Just continue to eat healthy foods and get regular exercise.
Muscles get bigger and stronger, but they do not show up as much as boys' muscles.
Breasts start to develop. First there is a small swelling under the nipples, and then the whole breast area starts to get bigger.
You may get some whitish jelly from your vagina before or in between periods. (Don't worry it's just your body's way of cleaning itself.)
Boys' changes
Boys gain weight.
Shoulders get wider.
Muscles start to get bigger and stronger.
You may notice that you are geting an 'Adam's apple'. This is your larynx or voice box getting larger and sticking out at the front of your throat. Your voice may seem to be all over the place, squeaky then deep or even sound like it is cracking. Don't worry - when your larynx has finished growing your voice will sound 'normal' again and probably a bit deeper than before.
Penis gets longer and wider.
Testes (or testicles) get larger.
Breasts look like they're developing a bit! (Don't worry this is quite normal and usually goes away by the end of puberty. See our topic Boys' breasts for more information.)
Apart from hair starting to grow on your body, it also grows on your face, like a beard, moustache or sideburns. Usually it's pretty thin at first but gets stronger and darker towards the end of puberty.
You get erections sometimes because you're nervous or excited and other times when it just happens by itself! This can be a bit embarrassing at first but other people don't usually notice them as much as you do and if you don't think about the erection or you concentrate on something really boring (like saying the alphabet backwards) things will settle down again.
