Esther asked
Can I still get my period if I don't have under arm hair but I have leg hair and hair down there
Soso answered
Yep, totally! Body hair can grow at different times for everyone, so it's super normal to have hair in some places before others. Underarm hair is usually one of the later things to show up during puberty, so you're probably just waiting for that part of the party to start.
Your period is more connected to other internal changes in your body, like your hormones kicking into gear. You already having leg and pubic hair is a big sign that puberty is happening, and these usually appear before your first period does. So, no underarm hair doesn't mean your period won't start.
Other big signs that your period is getting closer are breast buds forming and developing, and also getting a discharge in your underwear that looks like clear or whitish goo. Those are way more clued in to your first period than armpit hair. So if you're seeing those, you're on your way!
