Why do males get horniest in their teens ?

Hormones: As the pituitary and adrenal glands mature in the pre-teen and teen years, testosterone is produced by the testicles and many changes occur. Facial hair grows, the voice deepens, the penis elongates, the testicles grow and muscles get bigger. Testosterone causes the sex drive and sexual desire and stimulation. It is probably never higher than in the teen years.

Testosterone!: It generally peaks at age 20 and then stabilizes or gradually decreases with age. Also immaturity with an emerging new feeling and inexperience with controlling it plays a big role.
