During puberty, adolescents experience changes both physically and psychologically. This study aimed to understand the relationship between physical changes and self-confidence during puberty. This study is a quantitative study with a correlational approach, the population of young women is 60 people. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling (n=40), and the data analysis was done using the Chi-Square Test. This study shows that there is a relationship between physical changes and self-confidence during puberty in relation to: BMI (P value 0.007; OR: 0.104), breast enlargement (P value 0.001; OR: 0.071,) acne on the face (P value 0.040; OR: 5.067) and hip and waist circumference (P value 0.004; OR: 0.059). The results of the analysis of 40 female adolescent respondents during puberty show that there is a relationship between physical changes and self-confidence during puberty. They were provided education about a healthy lifestyle (regular diet and exercise) and caring for and maintaining facial skin to prevent acne from arising.
