My best guess is I was most likely 12. I was pretty naive at that age about puberty, sex, and all that as no one gave me the talk and I didn't have any older siblings or friends close like that to show or tell me anything. I finally kinda started piecing things together from figuring out late night talk show inuendo and sex ed in 9th grade at school. Finally found out what wet dreams were and why I was having them.
What age did you start puberty- girls and boys

Feel free to message me about literally anything 24|7. -
I think it depends when you count from. I didn't make a note of when I first got pubes or when I started to notice that my penis was growing - the only thing I know with reasonable accuracy is when I started to ejaculate which was 11y9m.
The other thing I do remember is that in the last year of primary school, having had no previous interest in girls, I began to notice them more and thought one in particular was beautiful. I also joined in with a group of boys, sometimes, who chased a group of girls around the playground until they hid in the girls toilets. This would have been in the last year of primary school so this would UK school year 6, 5th grade for Americans. That would make me 10 at the start of the year and 11 at the end.
This is not one of the usual external signs but puberty actually starts with hormone changes. The hypothalamus (part of the brain) starts to make a hormone GnRH which causes the pituitary gland (located in the brain) to make two further hormones: FSH and LH (named for their effects in girls). In boys LH works on the testicles which start to make testosterone. FSH and testosterone cause the testicles to start making sperm and testosterone causes all the other puberty changes in boys including acting back on our brains to start to change how we think and make us horny.
So from that, I conclude my testosterone level was up during that last year of primary school and that some of the visible changes may have started to happen, even if I didn't remember exactly when. -
i started at 10.

I started around 10 with my boobs. with 11 with hair down there.

I started getting breasts at age 10, and I had started wearing B cups two years later, and now at age 14 I am wearing 32D cups.
This was a bit awkward for a while, since I am only 4'9 in height, but I do feel that it is good proportions.
I also started getting periods at around age 10, and my hips gradually became wider at that point as well. -
