Question No. 41: Can you make your first period come faster?
Finally, 41! You guys have been asking for this question and here it is.
Hey PLS,
I need to know if there is any way to get your period sooner, and how to tell your mom when you get it and if it's ok to use tampons some before you get your period.
Thanks,
Kat-K.R.D, 10
Let's take Kat's questions one by one:
1. Can you speed up your first period?
No, you can't speed up your period. It's frustrating that there's no one age for first periods.
First periods come about two years after a girl starts developing breasts. And that happens during puberty, which can start as early as 8 and as late as 13.
2. How do you tell your mom when you get it?
The answer is any way you feel comfortable. You could say something simple like, "Mom, I think I got my first period." Or if you're feeling a little shy, send her a text, an email or leave her a note.
Some girls feel so nervous they don't tell anyone. That makes it tough because you need someone to help get you the supplies (pads or tampons) that you need. And you'll probably have other questions you'll want to ask.
3. Can you try tampons before your first period?
It's no problem to take one out and have a look - but doctors don't recommend actually inserting one before your period. You might want to ask your mom for some basic info before you get your period. Learning how tampons work can be part of the talk.
Any other advice for Kat about first periods?

Periods are nothing big for me. Here is a story about when I first got my period.
I was camping for my first time with my cousin, she is 8, and my 3 friends, 10, 11, and 12. And I was so excited. We went to the amusement park down the road from our tent, and we road rides and had a blast. We went back to the tent to find a fire my dad had made. We sat down by the fire and warmed up. My friends and cousin had to go to the bathroom, since it was dark they were a little scared so I went with them since the bathrooms were far away. When we got there I kinda had to pee. I went in the stall and started peeing. I wiped, and saw blood. I knew it was my period. I asked my BFF who was 12 and had hers if she had any pads. She willingly gave me a pad and a tampon like I was borrowing a pencil. We went back and I told my mom about it and my BFF told my mom that she gave me a pad and tampon.
I enjoyed my camping trip changing my pad every 3 hours and had fun on the trip even though I had my period.
So don't be afraid to talk to your mom, a close relative, or even your BFF because they won't react how you think. When your scared about something like that you feel like they will laugh at you and make fun of you. I hope I made everyone feel better about talking to their relatives or friends about their first (exciting or scary) period!
u probably not use a tampon when u don't need it because because u insert it the flow moves it into just the right place
Everyone tells me not to be in such a hurry to get my period, and you shouldn't either. You're stuck with it every month until menopause, which happens when your around your 50's. So, why hurry?
i have my period and i have used a tampon i think its probably not a good idea 2 use one before your period because even when im on my period i find them uncomfortable so they would probably hurt more when u arent. also dont be in a hurry 2 get ur period yes its exiting but they can be a pain (literally and figuratively). as for telling ur mom it can be kinda awkward but she has/had hers 2 and pretty much knows what ur going thru.
Hey here is a poem I wrote about being yourself I hope you like it.
Yourself
What is wrong with crying,
What is wrong with sighing,
What is wrong with being true,
What is wrong with being, you.
You need to open up,
And say "sup"
Just do whatever makes you, you.
Because what is wrong with buying, what nobody else has,
What is wrong with laughing, at somebody that's mad,
What is what is wrong with being silly,
What is wrong with being named Billy,
What is wrong with yelling out MOO!
And what is wrong, with being, YOU.
Hi Kat! I was totally one of those people (like you) who wanted it SOOO bad because your friends had it and stuff, and I just woke up this morning with blood in my pajamas!!! Seriously, it's not that great my mom's on business and im stuck with my dad and my brother....help!? I'm sooo not talking to my dad and my brother is 8....help me!!
what is menopause
Guys believe me don't wish for your period to come faster because once you get it (unlike clothes ) you can't return soon enough you'll have to worry about it at school and sports and Ect and yhea you were pads and tampons but still a small piece of your brain is always worrying the what ifs and you never feel as good as usually when you get it on certain standards like cleaness and cramps take my advice I'm begging you don't wish for something that's already coming be a kid while u can
If you really want to know when your period is going to come, you can always ask your mom what age she was and grade she was in when she got hers. Chances are you will have it around the same time as your mom did.
i want my period like MOST any girl but ik its close but i have all the things on how you know its close take a guess..... boobs i have hair..every where but JUST NOT THE BOOBS THAT IS ANOTHER THING I AM EAGER TO GET I AM 11 AND STILL SUPER FLAT ARE ALL 11 PEOPLE THIS FLAT UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AND YEAH SOMEONE PLEASE ANSER THIS QUESTION WHY AM I LIKE THIS???
My mom got her period around 18 and I got it when I was 10. For me it felt really unusual and I was kind of creeped that it might be really iregular but I geuss it was just the hormone development.
Yayyy you answered my question! Haha.... I recommend some books about periods. The Period Book (questions you don't want to ask but need to know) And Period. (the . at the end is red) But also I recommend The PLS collection!!
Whats menopuase!!
Here's your answer, Ally. Menopause is stage in life for older women, when their periods stop coming and they can no longer have a baby. Periods start, but they also stop someday! More info here: http://kidshealth.org/kid/grow/girlstuff/periods_end.html
Anonymous calm down!! Your OK! i am turning 12 and I am really flat too!
so, I'm still flat in the chest and cramped in the u know where and I'm not worried about my . because i would have possibly had a huge cramp. i'm completely fine with that. other than that, i got 2 pads in my backpack and a sweater to cover my . when it comes
how come if you are 10 or 11 you are flat?? i use to play sports but when i stoped playing sport my boobs stoped growing im not a fan of gym in school... so what do i do all my other friends ahve boobs but i have to pebbles from when i played my sport so whats up with me plz help???????? :( :( :( :s
i dont go to the bathroom at school and i have or (do) get discharge bad so what dO i do if i get my period but dont go to the bathroom ???? help schools starting REAL SOON??????? WELL IF I DONT KNOW I HAVE IT???
Josie has a good point. even though i havent had mine yet, we shouldnt rush it girls. Were gonna have it every month for 30 yrs! just wait
If you don't want to go to the bathroom at school, put a tampon in right before you leave and then when you get home take it out and ether put in a new one or wear a pad.
hey whats up guys srry i have not been on 4 a while. anyways dont worry bout ur period u dont need to worry until ur older. it stinks having ur period. u should just relax and have fun like i do! try some of these : pranks, water fights ,ect.
@Anonymous Here's something VERY important about tampons. Though I understand feelings of embarrassment at school, you should change a tampon every 4 to 6 hours.
Usually, you're at school longer than that, especially if you ride the bus and have afterschool activities.

Hey girls,for one, boobs are overrated. I was flat most of my early/late teens and didn't get bigger until much later. Consider genes, does your mom have big or small boobs? Also, boobs have fat in them so if you are bigger, your boobs will be bigger. So don't worry when it will happen, it will soon enough. If you exercise your boobs may be smaller because of less fat content.
I got my period in 6th grade and used pads. Don't rush into tampons. They can be tricky if you have dryness and like Jemma said, you must change them often so you don't get an infection. If you don't use the bathroom, perhaps put on a mini pad before you go to school.
what if you haev your period but you are way!!!!!!!!!!!!! to scared to use tampoons i am the girl that said i dont go to the bathroom at school
I agree with the girl who asked this question, and I would just email, text, or leave a note for my mom to tell her I got my ., just like I did to get myself a bra. And I was wondering too about the tampon situation, and I know now that it is best to use tampons after your . starts.
Do boys have 2 deal with anything at all? It seems like girls are the only ones :-(
OOOMMMGGG YOU NEED TO UPDATE YOUR BLOG MORE OFTEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ummm update your blog more often please!
Seriously! Do boys have any problems 2 deal with- like periods or boobs.
i am also 10. and i have studied alot about the human body [i wanna be a doctor] and even the most accurate website told me that you have your period when your body has prepared you and the process cannot be rushed. you may not know when your period may arrive but you can ask a doctor to give you a test to see the most accurate age. it's just like how cheese cake can't be rushed while baking because if you try to take it out of the oven early then the cheese cake is cold and unedible. so the best thing you can hope for is that your not in a sticky situation when your menstrual period comes.peace!
(i llike madison about being a doctor!!yeahhh)) believe it or not,im 13 & still i hav no period!! ALL of my friends hav it & say im very lucky cauz it bothers a lot. sometimes im eager 2 get it and sometimes i just think 2 myself,"let it just come when im ready".
What's Menopause?!
LOL its a late stage of life that older women go through when they became infertile (can't have babies anymore)
No one should want thier period to come sooner. When talking with your mom, ask her about cramps and such. I know my period is unpleasant so, don't rush it... :)
when i got my first period boy was it bad
to Anonymous who got her peiriod while her mom was on a bussiness trip: either put some toilet paper in you pants or ride your bike to your local drug store.
to anonymous at 10:55 august 4th -
AHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAA sooo liking it!! :P
and dudey dont feel left out, feel sorry for those that have them!!!
age - 17
Love Pink I know!! Boys don't have to shave their legs or underarms, worry about their period leaking, wear itchy bras, go through the pain of having a baby, or worry about doing their hair all the time!! Ugghhh haha. So girls, I have a question. My breast buds are super duper painful. Is this normal? They hurt if I hug someone or touch them without my bra.
I am 11 and two of my friends have got
Their period I really want mine so I feel
Like I'm part of the group and that Im not
A kid any more. One of my friends is
Always boasting and saying how mature
She is I just want my period so I can fit in
And be a normal girl not a kid. Plus how
Do you tell your teacher if you get it at school.
What do u do if u r at a friends house and u get ur 1st period and ur to scared to tell their mom
tell your friend i am sure they would be happy to help (well if there a true friend)....
well you dont have to tell you teacher princess perfect just regulary ask to go to the bathroom and then go to the nurse you dont have to tell them and if you do want to well then idk sorry
don't worry my buds are too. it's normal cause they are just growing.
Hope I helped :)
Hi everyone today I got some
Sort of clear discharge stuff that dries yellow
I am really sore in my you know where and I
Am very moody are these positive signs
Sorta... It takes abt a 6months or so dont get woRked up about those things. trust me u dont want ur cycle thats how i was.
you need boobs 2 get ur first auntie flo right??? cause if its true i got nun!!!!!
Anonymous - that stuff you get is vaginal discharge, which you have for about 6 months to a year before your period. But don't get anxious, 'cause I for one had it almost two years before I got my period! Be careful if it gets darker than yellow, though - in which case you may want to bring it up at your next checkup. Hope this helps!
if you are against bullying write a commeny about you getting bullied
trust me you do not want your periods to come faster
It's me again anonymous this vaginal
discharge is getting thicker is it normal
my boobs are getting bigger and they are
Very sore to those 11 year old girls that say
They are flat I am not but my mum was and my
BFF is sometimes girls take time to develop but
You will eventually. By the way I am 11 and my boobs
Are small too but I'm not super. Flat
Is there a way to get your period sooner like
Anoymous I get that vaginal discharge too
I have got cramps as well. What is the best
Way to get rid of cramps.
bathe, and if they are really bad ask for medication.
Hi everyone I am just wondering what you
First period feels like and how you know when
You are going to get it
Hey everyone, my friend was like 11 and she got her period and she had no boobs, is that normal???
my mum is all things natural and wants to make me washable pads when i start my period, are they hygenic?? I am 13 and have been gettindg discharge for 12 months! i have bigger boobs than most of my friends but that is probably because my mum has bigger boobs than average!
xxx
you cant use` a tampon if u havent started period
i have super small boobs and i want bigger once is it true that if you have small once when u are like younger u wil have bigger once when older???? i think it is but idk!!!???
you cant really speed it up.depends on ur mom
I REALLY want my period! I am a little bit scared or embarrassed. I have a late birthday, and I haven't gotten discharge yet. I feel as though I am being left out of women hood. HELP!
i am 13 and have no boobs! but i've had discharge for 2 years and have hair down there. I feel like nothing is ever going to happen. :(
Hi everyone again sorry I have not been around
Alot I have been getting discharge for a while
Now and I am getting cramps I am getting
Discharge bad does that mean I am getting
My period soon. My boobs are sore I have
Boobs and hair down there I have no under-arm
Hair but I have a strong Oder sweat smell
And pimples
I think that I'll never grow up!
My Mum had her period at 14 and my sister did too I think. I am 13 and a half and I have had discharge for 2 years (it isn't heavy) and I even have hair down there (but not under my arms)
But my boobs are so small! I barely fit an 8A and that is embarrasing because everyone else has big boobs and have their period. And people always remind me of my flatness and I'm like, "thanks a lot."
When will I ever grow up? :(
well, getting your first period is really strange, i mean if you really think about it, you should be happy you still don't have it, you can barely go swimming, also what if you get it and your not perpaired? what if you lose your tampon at a pool party? all these questions, just before you get your period answer these questions and think about it. don't be afraid to ask your mom... i bet she'll have some interesting stories to tell you! :P
hope this helped,
crazydaydreamer
i have hair every where discharge super heavy but NO BOOBS!!!!!!!!!!! that is something i want but not my period i just want boobs i have small ones it isent funny im goign into middle school and if they dont grow im going to SCREAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

I know now that I'm just a late bloomer and everything will be all right in the end.
I will just have to be patient and enjoy swimming like you guys said.
Oneday I will get my period so I will stop stressing.
Hi everyone I am just wondering how do you
Know when you are about to get your first period
Two of my friends have theirs and one of my friends
Has had discharge for a while now and they all
Have boobs I am wondering why arent I growing
Up like my friends I am 11 and I only have Brest
Buds not boobs like my friend and my friends
That don't have boobs have their period I feel left out
I think I am an early bloomer. Sort - of. I have a bra, I started shaving my legs about a month ago, and the waiters in restaurants have been giving me the adult menu: 3 times in a row! But I do not have discharge yet. I AM ONLY 10!!
cutekitty2000... i feel the same way all my friends have everything i have rasin boobs (that means they are really small) i cane fit a bra its just like a starter i feel like i am not a girl i gave nothing just discharge bad
To the girls who asked about what to do if you get your period during school - I would reccommend (If you have a friend in that class) asking them if they had a pad. Older girls are more likely to have them than younger girls simply because fewer younger girls have their periods. I know how scary it can seem if you get your period and your scared to ask your teacher to go to the nurse. Your teachers will understand if you just ask to go to the nurse. If the teacher questions why, you may have to say, but most teachers won't. Teachers are very good at sensing the concern in your voice and can tell the difference between someone trying to skip class and someone that really NEEDS to go to the nurse. Don't be afraid to ask!
Is it normal that my discharge comes out clear but dries yellow?? Is it mixed with pee or something? PLease answer!!
So you are prepared for your first period, when you get discharge, ask mom for some just-in-case-pads to put in your backpack. You could also rehearse how you are going to tell someone at school or at home you got your .. And if you REALLY need to go to the nurse, maybe you could even fake it a wee bit. Not so much so that they get worried, but just a tiny bit. A tiny bit. I hope I helped you people who have not gotten their period. (Including Me!!!)
Hi everyone can you pleese blog about your first period stories I am very interested in what you write and would be interested to find out how you got your period and if it was scary, annoying ,excited. Pleese in it include how old you where so I can calculate what age the people on the pinklockersocitey average age for your period is. Have some courage and tell your story . To anoymos that wrote my name you might want to get a bra or a bralette which look like a bra but they do not hold your boobs up. To helpiamdesprerateformyperiod I agree with you on sharing first period stories
I agree with Cutekitty2000. It would be helpful to tell your story!
I know that having a period can be a total drag but sadly no you can't. I've had mine for about 6 years and truth be told I'm still not liking it, but it is apart of life and it means that your body is working properly. No that doesn't mean that if you haven't started yet that there's a problem it just means that there's a problem it just means that your body is waiting.hope I could help. Go PLS!:)

Pls help,
Kaleigh.
Hi anonymous that is the same age as me and has discharge it is hard to tell when u r going to get you period but it will happen. I have collected some info on vaginal discharge it is from the kidhealthorg. Read below.
I've never had my period, so what's this discharge?
- Laura*
About 6 months to 1 year before a girl gets her first period, her body may start to produce vaginal discharge. This is normal and is caused by the changing level of hormones in the body, resulting in an increase in secretions in the vagina. This discharge helps keep the vagina healthy.
Normal vaginal fluids vary in texture from thin and slightly sticky to thick and gooey. They also vary in color, ranging from clear to white or off-white. The amount of discharge can vary depending upon a girl's menstrual cycle. For example, fluids tend to be a bit heavier around the time a girl ovulates, which is when an egg is released from the ovary and moves into the fallopian tube.
Normal discharge should have only a slight odor and should never cause itching or burning. Symptoms like itching, a strong odor, or a change in color (such as to brown, gray, or green) indicate that a girl may have a vaginal infection and needs to see a doctor.
Sometimes a normal vaginal discharge can irritate the skin. This is due to the moisture against the skin. You can prevent skin irritation in the vaginal area, especially when it's hot and humid outside, by wearing cotton underwear and avoiding clothes that are tight. It's also important to keep your body clean by bathing regularly.
Hope it helps cutekitty2000
Hi just want to know what your discharge will look like a month before you get your period so I can prepare for my period plus I think you should have a word that you say instead of period so only you and your friends know.
Yeah, like "The red rose is blooming." Or,
"Monsters bring the bloody curse."
Or something funny like pow simple short and know one knows what you are talking about. Another. Word could be kapow or anything else you and your friends think of have fun picking a word.
u dont want ur period that fast. it really bothers me.i hate it, its really annoying and the blood stains everything
You wouldn't want you period yo come faster it really hurts!
I got my period when i was 10(i know, early) but i was fine. I got mine on the wekend so i was lucky. But, before i got it i really wanted it. Don't worry you will get it
Hi anonymous I am 11 and I have never got my period but my friend who is a year younger than me has hers it is so annoyning I am older than her and I really want my period so I can be like her + I feel
Like I am one of the slowest developers in even my sister who is 8 is developing faster that me why does mother nature hate me.
Hay giys my name is Annie and I'm 9 I got my perieod yesturday is there something wrong with me?
No, Annie. Some girls are early period-ers, and some are late. It is okay if you got yours at age nine.
Dear Cutekitty2000,
i have a really weird 1st period story for ya: when i was in 5th grade i started gettin this weird brown stuff in my underwear. i was like "this is NOT blood so it cant be my period" so i just ignored it. i was super scared to tell my mom about it, but it kept coming bak and i finally just told my mom theres this weird stuff in my underwear, and shes like it looks like ur period. and im like i dont think it is!! she made me wear pads anyways and about a year after that i got my REAL period. i cud tell cuz it actually came out red. i didnt tell my mom about the change so she still doesnt know. i still dont know what the brown stuff was. all ik is its gone now! just wondering, did this happen to anyone else?????
Cutekitty2000, that is so funny cuz me and my friends actually do that :)) we made it something really un-obvious. we call it purple pickles! i know its weird but we didnt want anyone to overhear us and figure it out. it was really funny cuz one time this guy really like this sports team who's color was purple and hes like "I WANT PURPLE PICKLES" and we like almost died laughing :))
a note on the discharge thing: i got my period 13 months after i started getting discharge.
Do you always get cramps when you have your first period? How often do you get discharge? PLEASE answer these questions!
That is so funny lol but we picked a word that was funny and short and I think it is a good word to choose. It is pow.
Helpiamdesprerateformyperiod why don't you look up answers to your questions on the kids health org website
This is the story of my first period:
I was in an airplane heading for Florida. Then I started to get these really awful pains. I started crying: Nobody at all noticed! I went to the bathroom, even though I don't like them on planes. RED ALL OVER MY UNDERWEAR! Now, I did have a pad, because my mom got them just in case. Thank goodness!
Wow so lucky
i am 14 and got my period about 3 weeks ago i think.
i started getting these bad pains in my stomach and back and i felt like i had wet my pants. This was during lunch time at school so i quickly ran to the toilet and there was BLOOD! I wiped it all off and put some toilet paper in my undies.
I went back to my friends and asked if they had any spare pads (they all had their period) I think i blushed really really bad but they were all excited about me "growing up" and gladly gave me pads and i went back to the bathroom to put one on.
Then I texted my mum to tell her.
Your period may seem scary but your friends and parents are there for you and it won't seem so scary after!
did everyone have cramps before their fist period? i don't have cramps but will i get it soon anyway?

u probably shouldn't try tampons again, because to stay in they need the blood flow, and don't worry you r normal.

No, you can't speed your period up. Just ask your mom to come here and just say, " I think I started my period." But you don't have to just send her a text or write a note. And no I wouldn't recommend to use a tampon earlier. Just have one handy in your locker or backpack. But you can always use pads if you are afraid to use tampons.
@ 6 years of discharge... Do not worry!! Periods can come anywhere from 8-14 years old. Just if you have questions ask your mom or a doctor!
When you first get your period is it normal to skip 2 months in a row?
hello im 11 and i wandt my period soooo bad most of my friends have had theirs like you other girls but i havnt had mine why i want it soo bad im getting hair down there too and ive been going through it for like 1 or 2 years why havnt i had it yet? :( and one of my friends that had their period is younger than me by like a month. when i have mine ill tell you my story but just warning you that story might not be up here for like another year oh and next year im going into middle school and all the boys like girls with big boobs so i dont think im gonna get a boyfriend for a long time is there anyway to get bigger boobs sooner?
ok today is my eleventh b-day. i was at my bff's house-we were playing a game called hedbanz when BOOM out of no were i started to get EXTREME cramps. it hurt soooooo bad! 1 minute it is there and the next minute it is gone! i have in fact been getting discharge for about 4 years. i have some public hair i have medium sized boobs and some(not really alot) underarm hair. am i going to soon getting my period? PLZ HELP!
@anonymous... you will probably get it soon!! My friend said she got really bad cramps... and she all the sudden got all "sweaty"!!!
this is my first time commenting on this site so here goes. im 11 and in sixth grade, and i need to no if my period is cming. my bra size is 36 b (been that way since 4th grade). i have thick leg and arm hair but my mom won let me shave. ive had acne foreeeever. i have ALOT AND I MEAN ALOT of hair down ther. i have had discharge for two years. i also have cramps. and i have mood swings all the time. one thime i was sprawled out on my floor bawlin, and two minute later i was happier than a daisy. pleases help me! nobody else will. p.ps. i only have two pads cause my mom won get me more
Everyones different but your period may come soon!I was getting cramps just before it happened and now I keep getting mood swings. (I got it a couple weeks ago) Keep the pads in your bag incase it happens at school. And for the thing how your mom won't let you shave, if it's because she doesn't want you to cut yourself, there are products like "Nair" and "Veet" which are hair removal products that come with a sponge and hair removal cream that you can use in the shower. This is how I did it and don't worry it doesn't hurt! Im also in sixth grade and have alot of hair down there and in other "awkward" places that you mentioned. I also have alot of acne. I suggest not going for really strong acne cleansers because they really dry out your skin(I learned that the hard way)I suggest using a gentle face cleanser daily and how many times it sais on the bottle/tube and a cleansing mask or scrub once a week. Hope this helps! :)
Ok so this is my first period story: I was at my friends house with our other friend and we were playing this game on their xbox called plants vs zombies and then our other friend had 2 leave early so we just continued playing after she left. we were playing in her basement without the lights on so it was pretty dark. I felt like I had a little bit of cramps but i got them 4 like ever so i was completely oblivious 2 the fact that it cud have been my period. she went 2 get a drink and so I went 2 the washroom and when i wiped i saw blood & and I knew it was my period but i was scared out of my mind so i just put more toilet paper in my underwear and went back 2 the game even tho i was dying inside lol. when i got home i got my mom alone and this is what happened
me: mom can we go 2 the drug store?
mom: why?
me: i need pads.
mom: u started???
me: ya.
it was not as bad telling her as i thot. but she started in the middle of gr 5. I started now. ( gr 6 im 11) p.s. shud I tell my friends? none of them kno and they thing that periods are gross so i think that they would think i was weird if they knew. what should i do?
thank you! anonymos from 9:12 today!

Wow,i live in London so its kinda different but.. I don't get the thing about periods, why do some girls want it so bad? Call me weird, but the first time it happened to me i cried...I kinda knew it was gonna happen because when i was about to flush the night before, i realised my wee was pink :( i totally ignored it, convincing myself there was something wrong with the water (dumb or what?) The next morning, my pjs were red...and i've kinda got a problem...my boobs are big, i mean REALLY big. Im larger than alot of women, and i honestly dont want to wear bras, do i have to?? Sorry for the long comment
Btw im 11.
Im 11 and im still really flat because I have no boobs. Im kinda embarrassed because all my friends and my twin sister have normal size boobs and I dont. But to make me feel better my mum bought me a crop top (mums are the best). I know that I should appreciate being a kid while I can but its just to embarrassing being as flat as a post (well im not as flat as a post, but im still quite flat) I HOPE I COULD GROW QUICKER!!!!!

No, there are no special foods or drinks that speed up your period.

Periods are overrated. ;D

Periods are overrated, I agree. REMEMBER TO ALWAYS TRUST UR INSTINCTS!!!!!!!!! I was thinking one day I should probably pack some pads with me just in case, and I didn't. And guess what, THAT VERY DAY I GOT MY PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! So the next month I was gonna wear white shorts to school one day but then I though, no, what if I get my period today????? So I didn't wear white shorts and guess what???? I GOT MY 2nd PERIOD AT THAT DAY!!!!! But that time I was prepared. TRUE STORY I SWARE!!!!!
Hey guys. I'm 13, I have pubic hair, medium/small boobs (36/38 A), discharge (idk the difference of heavy or not), I shave my legs, but no under arm hair. My mom had hers when she was 14.. I'm turning 14 in 2013.. (I'm going into 8th grade ) do you think I'll get it then? And I would like it if you guys would share your first period stories.. It would help a lot.
I have a lot of discharge is that good or bad
I am twelve, going on thirteen and I have no idea what to expect. I mean, I know what happens, but what scares me, is that I have no clue when I'll get it my first period. Part of me wants to get it and the other half doesnt know what she wants. I'm freaked out and excited in a way. :) :(
Don't wear tampons when you aren't on your period.
Eat fatty foods drink green tea and have lots of calcium I dnk this works but I'm only on the second day. And I heard a weird one that's rub tooth paste in your boons Which sounds tottally bogas.
Hope this helps
should i stock up on pads now
Can you wear a pad when your not on your period well I wanted to wear one because I have this feeling im going to get it soon and I just wanted to wear one just in case

Hey, I'm 13 since October, I've had the discharge for a long time now, my breasts have developed, I have hair, but I still haven't had my period yet? And all my friends have got their's and I just haven't, I feel left out, and don't say that I'll regret it when I get it, because I won't, I want to get it.

I have the period book it's really helpful
can any one plz tell the average age for periods iam 11 i am having vaginal discharge from a month
can u plz tell me the average age for periods i am 11 and i have vaginal disharge from almost a month are my periods near
To answer your question Anonymous, there is no average age for periods. It depends on your hormone process and when your mom got her's. Also, vaginal discharge can last for up to 2 years, so I doubt your period is near. Just remember to be patient!
For more information, ask your mom or your doctor.
Hope this helps!
Hey everyone! I'm impatiently awaiting my period. I am 12 years old and have been having heavy discharge for about a year. I asked my doctor when my period should be expected, and it will be a while till then. But I have a question. Is it ok if my vaginal discharge comes out clear and dries yellow and crusty? Also, I'd like people to share their first period stories. I enjoy reading them.
Hoping for an answer to my question! <3
I am 13 and have had my breast for 2 1/2 years no. I have had discharge for that long too, but i still don't have my period.

Ok, I have a size 30a bra, loads of hair down thier, discharge and a bit of underarm hair, when will i get my period? Soz 'bout the details!!!!
You could text your mum and ask for advice or smile sweetly to your dad and say dad,.i have to go shopping. If he says no, say dad. Im not gonna tell you WHY I have to go to boots, but it is urgent. You could say I need things you will get embarrassed about if I tell you.
