Answers:
Take a deep breath and calm down. It will be okay. Every woman on the planet has gone through and survived, and so will you. You probably won't start puberty, and your period, for another year or two.
Be sure to ask your mother, aunt, older sister for information and advice - your friends may tell you all sorts of things, but they may not have accurate information. Your school will probably offer some sort of confidential, girls-only session each year to give you basic information. Don't be afraid to ask adult women about specifics - they have been there before and understand your confusion and concern.

And actually, men DO have to go through this stuff as well. They encounter a lot of physical and emotional changes during puberty, some of which are just as painful or embarassing or difficult as what women encounter. For example, guys don't get a period, but they might get uncontrollable erection in the middle of class (I know, ewwww) - now THAT's embarassing. So they have stuff to freak out about too.

And puberty and menstruation isn't all bad - it can be fun and exciting. It's a wonderful new stage in your life, full of change and discovery. Don't fear it, but learn everything you can. Don't let anyone convince you it's wrong or weird - it's totally natural and normal. I promise, you'll be okay.
Guys DO go thru something similar - we just dont talk about it - ever - and it happens during puberty, but only during puberty - we dont have to deal with it afterwards.
men go through puberty too, hon..

puberty totally sucks, but don't be scared, everybody your age will be going through it too..nothing to worry about. :)
i got my period when i was 11 (im almost 13) theres nothing u can do except deal with it
if theres a lot of pain take midol or something like it
ask someone close to you they could really help more then people on here!
dont worry about it. once you start growing boobs and hips and all the guys looking at you, you'll love it. its no big deal you have to go through it any ways it better to enjoy it.
it's alright, don't worry! Just playing on the safe side, If your period starts in the wrong time, you have pads in handy and in reach. or you could wear a panty liner so it doesn't soak directly to your underwear...
I know this stuff is embarrassing but it's a good thing it's only for a week every month so try to endure it. And keep track of when your period starts so you can estimate the next month.
It doesn't hurt, just feels a little...gross, every girl has it. As for everything else, your hair will just get oiler, you'll probably reach a growth spurt, and so on.

But hey, who said puberty was a thing to welcome?
I'm 15, and I went through that same thing when I was 11.But honestly, puberty is nothing to worry about.
sweetie , its normal to be nervous. i am a twin and my sister woke up one morning and got hers, and i was flipping out cause i thought i was going to get mine too. i didn't till 6 months later.

every woman, girl. gets their period. some deal with it ok, meaning they are very well educated about it and are not uncomfortable with it. others, like ourselves, don't have anyone they trust to talk to about it, and you are lucky that you have' yahooanswers' cause you get a million ways to help calm your nerves!

men get this stuf, they just go thru it differently. some tend to withdraw, not talk, they don't understand their bodies or others or they just don't want to talk to other people. they also get 'wet' dreams, which they have no idea what happened, but its a normal thing for guys that will continue to happen till they die.

your guidance councelor in school will help you a great deal, regardless of sex, and your school nurse. some girls don't get their periods till they are15 or so. relax enjoy beign a kid and not having it!
yeah. Im 12 and I'm sort of scared 2 have my period but I know that it's about to happen. it can start anywhere between 9-16. If you have breasts and pubic hair and gel or whitish stuff on your underwear, you'll be starting soon
Just take a deep breath, relax, the anxiety you are feeling is completely normal. You will have one question answered and about three more to ask, it never stops, believe me. Don't be nervous; remember, too, other girls your age are about to go through the same thing and, believe or not, even your mom did the same!

Don't think boys don't have to go through anything, because they do, big time. Their puberty can be complete in a few short months, whereas a girl can take up to five years to complete the phase...and it is worth it. You will have more time to get used to the changes taking place in your body. As you discover one new thing, mark it off your mental scorecard, tell yourself "now I have passed that landmark, what's next?" The more you discover, the better it gets!

You will do fine.

Just take a deep breath, relax.
hi,
first of all, ITS OK! just take a second and breath! puberty can defenitly be a pain in THE BUTT! but we all go thru it! next, i think u need to just let ur feelings out, w/ ur mom or bff or whoever u feel comfortable w/. i would go to my mom. it can be embarissing to talk to ur mom about this kinda stuff, but after u get it off ur mind, ull feel so much better! ur mom has been thru all of it so she can relate. if u dont want to go to ur mom, if u have an older sister ur close to, u can talk to her 2. as far as the period goes, yes, it can get it the way and sometimes it can be painful. (im not trying to scare u with that, its just the plain truth.) ur most likely a little ways from ur period. (if u dont have it yet) MOST girls start around 12-13 but God made us all different. u can start from anywhere around 9-16. just to prepare u for ur period, ill tell u wat happened to me right b4 i started. the nights b4 i couldnt sleep good and was really emotional. ull probably have some cramping, feel tired and have cravings. im not saying u will DEFENITLY have these symptoms im just saying its normal. when u first start, (4 a year i think) u will not be regular. in other words, its not gonna be the same every time. but u will regulate and ur cycle will be between 28 and 31 days i think it is. (starting from the day u start) ex: u start on the 1st, u will most likely start back between the 29th and the 3rd. but just remember, its not that bad and u can turn to, ur friends, ur mom, ur sis, or whoever else u feel comfortable w/. hope i helped! God bless!
don't be too nervous. it's kinda normal. a little cramping just before or during your period, and you'll start to grow hair in weird places. Talk to your mom or an aunt about it. you may hit it around age 12. You'll start growing really fast, and your shoe size will probably change. Go with some girlfriends and your mom to get you fitted for a bra. You'll need one.
um are u r a little young for YouQA.com but do u have black hair down there i did at 10 my mom started at 14 i think i will start next week i am 11 to shhh no one knows
