Menarche is a sign of sexual maturity, indicating that a female's reproductive system has developed to the point where she can potentially conceive. It does not occur at the very beginning of puberty, nor does it signal a sexual disorder. While it may accompany other signs of puberty like pubic hair development, it is not directly tied to them.
