What is the correct term for having stopped or finished puberty?

Asked by reacting_acid (1181points) December 7th, 2009

I know there is pubescent and pre-pubescent but is there a term for having finished puberty? Maybe pro-pubescent? Thanks in advance :)

There are two additional states, trans-pubescent and post-pubescent.

Funny thing. In Jr. High I can remember never not having an erection.

Now in my 40’s I need to make reservations.

Not to say it is a problem it all works very well. It has just become quality. Not quantity.
