I can only squat 85lbs?

I just started going to the gym last week and I've been squatting 85lbs so far, I do dead lifts, bench, and a few other lifting things. I know 85lbs is considered a bit lightweight, but I'm not too sure how or when to bump up the weight. I am a female btw.

    that's fine. the only person you are trying to be better then is yourself. as for adding weight. I usually add more weight as soon as I can 5 sets of 5. and I add 10 lbs. its not a rule set in stone or anything. just add weight as you feel stronger
