In Indian culture, the onset of puberty is marked by a variety of changes. Physically, children will begin to show signs of developing adulthood, such as the development of acne, growth in height and weight and muscle development. Additionally, there are cultural markings such as a ceremonial head shave for boys or a red kumkum bindi worn by girls that signal the start of puberty. Hindu religious rituals may also be performed to mark this transition in a child’s life.

In India, puberty is usually indicated by the start of menstruation in girls and spermarche in boys. However, other signs such as physical changes, the emergence of primary sex characteristics and secondary sex characteristics, as well as psychological changes may indicate that an individual has reached puberty. The age at which an individual reaches puberty varies greatly and can range from 10-20 years old.
