Do girls go through puberty worse than boys, tell me without saying anything about what boys go through

Soso answered

Okay, so puberty for everyone is like, a lot. For girls, it's a huge time of changes and it can feel pretty intense, mostly because there's so much going on inside and outside your body all at once.

Like, your body literally starts changing into an adult body. You get breasts, and your hips get wider, and you start growing hair in new places. And then there's your period, which is a whole new thing to learn and manage. All these changes are because your hormones are going wild trying to make everything happen, and those hormones can totally mess with your mood. One minute you're fine, the next you're crying over nothing, and then you're super mad. It's confusing to deal with, even for you, let alone everyone around you. Having so many visible changes, and also dealing with your period, can make you feel super self-conscious too.

But here's the thing: it's not bad. It just is. It's a huge chapter in your life and you're going to get through it. This stuff is normal, and literally every girl goes through it, so you're never alone. Having a period tracker like the Soso app can actually help you see patterns in your mood and body, so it feels less random and more like your body is just doing its thing.
