Adolescence and Gender Equality in Health

Abstract

Puberty brings profound shifts in identity and sense of self. The external manifestations of sexual maturity propel a young adolescent into a different set of roles and expectations. Puberty also triggers a different engagement with peers and the external world [1,2], leading to the adoption of values and aspirations a young person takes forward into adult life. Central to those values are gender norms and the sense of what it is to be a woman or man in a given culture.
