Sexual maturation in girls begins with the appearance of breast buds (thelarche), which is the first sign of ovarian function. Thelarche occurs at approximately age 8 to 11 years and is followed by the growth of pubic hair. Linear growth slows, and menarche begins approximately 1 year after the peak height velocity (PHV). Ovulation occurs with menarche but may or may not accompany the first 2 years of menarche so it is not established until later.
