Your sexual organs
When you go through puberty your sexual organs change. They begin to alter in a way that will let most people reproduce, or have children. They also become more sensitive and allow you to feel sexual pleasure.
It's worth knowing what all the different parts are called and what they're for and that depends upon your sex.

Male sexual organs
Female sexual organs
It's natural to worry that there's something wrong with your sexual organs, or that they're too big or too small.
The truth of the matter is that peoples sexual organs are as varied as their faces are. Being a good lover is not really down to having big genitals or pretty ones. It's more about your generosity and sensuality.
If you take some time to get to know your genitalia then you'll be a better position to realise when something really is wrong, and go and see your doctor.
