Why haven't I reached puberty at 17?
Patient's Query
Hi I am 17 years old girl . My height is 5.6 and my weight is 88 kgs . My problem is still I didn’t attend puberty
Answered by Dr. Babita Ghodke
The reason is that each person achieves puberty at their age. Not developing breasts or getting a period by a certain age are some signs of delayed puberty. The reasons may be different. For example, a person's family history can play a role or some specific medical conditions may be involved. A well-balanced diet, regular exercise, and having a conversation with a nutritionist can be helpful to tackle the issue of delayed puberty.
