A member asked:
At what age does puberty hit at maximum ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: Your genetics determines onset, duration and end of puberty. For males the range is usually 12-20 years old. In males sexual development is more gradual, as opposed to females where it is more dramatic. My definition of "maximum" in this case is "physical adulthood, " or no more growth possible.
