m c	Sweetie, girls start their periods at different ages. I started mine at 13, my youngest sister started her's at 15 and my oldest sister started her's at 12. Do not worry about it, you have plenty time. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dreamzindigital_20	i wouldnt worry about it. you never know when you are going to. i started mine new years day when i was nine...thus making this the 13th year ive had to deal with it. if you are extremely active, i.e gymnastics, track anything like that, you could be 16 or 17 before you get it. some start really early. it varies by person.

Zelda Hunter	I was barely 12 years old, and young for my class. That was 43 years ago, and I'm happy to say, I don't have to deal with that any more! If you are worried at age 11, then the age has dropped. Enjoy your freedom while you have it. There will be plenty of time for all of that other stuff soon enough. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

emily.grace	aww no worries. it's no big deal.... i didn't get mine until i was almost 13 (i was around 5'4" and 97 pounds). if you have the signs that you will get your period (breasts, body hair, vaginal discharge, etc.) you will probably start soon. but if you're skinny and not so developed, you will start later. but really, having your period is not enjoyable at all... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lolapug99	11 is pretty young to start your period but it can happen. i was 14 and 1/2 unless you turn 17 and still haven't gotten it dont worry. how old was your mother when she started. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

fifimsp1	I was 13. 11 is a bit young. Also, you will stop growing when puberty is over, so grow awhile then wait for your period to happen. Plus, you won't like it once you have it. For the first 10 years of my period I would throw up everytime I had my period. Not fun. Some people have bad ones, some easy, just wait. Plus this is a question you should be asking your mother or a school nurse or something. Not on Yahoo. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

boo	haha, don't worry. i was just like you when i was at your age. i was worried if whether i was gunna get it or not. it's different for many people. you'll get it though. i got mine at the age of 13. you may wait for it now but trust me it's not fun getting your period :[ you'll get it, so don't worry.

Reva P	First, I want to reassure you that pie-jur-wot is absolutely WRONG. Reaching menarche (your first period) a 8-9 is called precocious puberty and it's actually a sign of something wrong. As for when you'll have your first period, well, that will be when you're genetically programmed to have it. You can get a idea of that by talking with your mother, with your mother's sisters, if any, with your older sister's, if any, and with your mother's mother. In general, if you haven't reached menarche by the time you turn 16, you should see your doctor and discuss it. In the meantime, though, stop worrying about this one. It's not worth the extra stress. The age at which any of us, other than your mother and your mother's first degree female relatives reached menarche, simply isn't relevant to your body's timetable.. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

corbinlicious1	I don't know when you will start but I started when I was 10, don't be all stressed out about it because even though it's the most important part of your woman hood when it comes you'll wish that it would go away because I had a friend that everytime she had her period she got sick. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Amy N	that sounds a little young......i think i was around 13.... 6th grade maybe.....also i cant even imagine why u would be in a hurry to start! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Damie Diva	I WAS 11 IN THE 7TH GRADE, DON'T WORRY YOUR JUST A LATE BLOOMER. AND FOR A SIDE NOTE YOU SHOULD DISCUSS THESE THINGS WITH YOUR MOTHER. DON'T RUSH IT, BECAUSE YOUR NOT GOING TO LIKE IT!AT ALL, IT'S SO NON ATTRACTIVE WHEN YOU GET YOUR PERIOD!. SO JUST WAIT UNTIL IT HAPPENS. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

QueenChristine	I started at 12..... don't panic... it will happen. Everyone is different. Just relax. It will happen eventually. Don't be in such a hurry...you'll be having them for quite a while..... cjs Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Nancy	Ask your mom when she started hers. You may start around the same age she did. I started at 13. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Yahooligan	No one can say exactly when you'll get your first menstrual period, but you will get it some time during puberty. Puberty is the time in your life when you begin to become an adult. This means a lot of growing and changing - both inside and out. Some girls start puberty at age 8, and others may start as late as age 14 or 15. Each girl goes at her own pace. So don't think you're weird if you start puberty a little earlier or a little later than your friends. At the beginning of puberty, you'll notice that your breasts are developing and you're starting to grow a little hair under your arms. Hair also will grow on your genitals (pubic hair). For most girls, their first menstrual period, or menarche (say: meh-nar-kee), begins about 1 1/2 to 2 years after breast development starts. In some girls, the time from the beginning of puberty to getting the first menstrual period may take only 6 months; for other girls, it may take longer - up to 3 years. Every girl is different, and there is a wide range of normal development during puberty. A good sign you're getting close to the time when your first period will arrive is if you notice a thick, white mucous discharge coming from your vagina. Usually, this happens for a number of months before you get your first period. After you've gotten your period and you're menstruating, it means that your body is able to have a baby (even though you probably don't want one yet!). Every girl has two ovaries filled with thousands of tiny eggs and two fallopian tubes that connect the ovaries to a place called the uterus or womb, where babies grow. If you've already gotten your period, it means that special chemicals, or hormones, in your body are telling the eggs in your ovaries to mature. So each month, one egg matures and begins its journey to the uterus. While it's traveling, the walls of your uterus get thicker with blood and tissue, which can act as a nice, soft cushion for a baby. Once the egg reaches the uterus, if it hasn't been fertilized by sperm, the uterus doesn't need this blood-and-tissue cushion and pushes it out through your vagina. Ta dah! Your period has arrived! Once you get your period, you may once again worry about whether you're normal. No two girls' periods are exactly alike. Some girls have periods that last for 2 days, and other girls have periods that last for more than a week. Some girls have very heavy periods with monthly cramps, and others have much lighter periods after the first couple of days. It also takes a while (usually 12 to 18 months) for a girl's period to become regular after her first period. You may get your first period and then not have another for a few months. That's perfectly normal. The amount of blood you lose during your period can vary, too. You can bleed anywhere from a few spoonfuls to a cup (240 milliliters) of blood each time you have your period. If you think that you are bleeding too much or are worried that something is wrong, talk to your doctor. Some differences are normal, but you shouldn't be bleeding for a few weeks at a time or going more than 6 months without a period. Are you thinking a lot about when your first period will arrive? You're not alone. Lots of girls wonder and wonder - when will it come? If you feel a little worried or anxious about getting your period, it can help to talk to someone you trust, like your mom or older sister. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lemonheadaddict	I was 13 when I started my period. You need to be over 100 lbs before you start your period, you also need to have started developing your breasts. If you period is on it's way, you will have genital and armpit hair. Some symptoms that "Aunt Flow" is on her way include increased acne, cramping, spotting, mild to severe irratiblity, increased oil production in hair and skin, sore muscles, and tender breasts. If you havn't gotten your period yet, don't worry! Some girls don't get thiers until they are 18 years old. Best of Luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
