Does OCD onset have anything to do with hitting puberty?

My OCD came on me in the sixth grade. It was an overnight kind of thing. It started with guilt over things in the past and then progressed to obsessive compulsive checking disorder. I had ritual acts of checking electrical outlets, stove, etc. I don't do the checking thing anymore but obsessive thoughts and guilt are still very much present.

Well, OCD is a personality disorder, and all personality disorders go though stages depending on how old you are, so I think the onset of puberty may have affected the OCD, but I don't know.
