Puberty is the process of physical changes that occur during adolescence, such as the development of secondary sexual characteristics and the ability to reproduce. This process is primarily driven by a brain-neuroendocrine process involving the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and gonads.

Menarche and spermache refer specifically to the onset of menstruation in females and the production of sperm in males, respectively, and are specific events that occur during puberty. Estrogen is a hormone involved in the reproductive process and is released during puberty, but it is not the primary brain-neuroendocrine process that drives physical changes during this time.
