What is happening in the teenage brain during puberty?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Puberty: The brain's Hypothalamus begins to release pulse of Gonadotropin releasing hormone, Anterior Pituitary glands secrete Luteinizing hormone & Follicular stimulating hormone, which make ovaries & testes produce estradiol & testosterone which produce the body changes in puberty.
