I started between 10 and 11, but there are so many contibuting factors to this...I started very early, but I was also...err...let's say "poggie". That's a major factor in female puberty.

I started puberty when I was 8 years old and my periods started when I was 9 years old.

I started when I was 10.

But I also thought Autism or Asperger's didn't effect you in terms of when you start to go through puberty.

I did think ther would be a tendency for us to start a lower age but I don't why.

From the replies it would seem that way, but most of us are youngish here and there is an undeniable shift in our reproductive growth down to things like weight and environment, so I don't believe there is a tendancy at all, I just think most of us are young enough to have been affected by the shift.

Hence "the shift", no?

Age 12. But I was born in 1956, and I think the environmental toxins have shifted the age downward since then, if I am not mistaken.

13

It was the only time I've ever wanted to go to school, because I'd lost a lot of weight and grew about 5cm over the summer.
