This is for Women ONLY!?


Question:
ok how do u know that you have started your period ??

Answers:
You'll find blood in your panties. It can be red or brown.
Sometimes there are clots and that's ok too.

You might want to see where it's coming from..if it's coming from the vagina then it's most likely your period. You can tell if you wipe it off and more comes out.Your period is going to last for a few days (3-7 days).

Can you talk to your mom about this? She should get you some pads.

Don't be scared, it happens to all girls.

Here's what the internet says;

North American women is around 12 or 13, though your first period can come anytime between 9 and 16, depending upon your height, weight, and cultural background.

Symptoms of Menarche
You will probably feel some moderate symptoms when you first get your period. You may notice that you feel bloated or uncomfortable – this is caused by water that your body retains during menstruation. Other signs of menarche include a slight headache, leg ache or backache for a few hours. The most common symptom of menarche, is cramping. You may feel abdominal cramping, similar to a stomachache for the first few days of your period. Try taking an over-the-counter pain medication, such as Advil or Tylenol, for the pain.

You may notice some emotional changes too before your period. You may feel tense, angry, or sad because of the hormones your body is releasing. Don’t get too discouraged. These symptoms won’t last long.

Good Luck!
