QUESTION BY A

Hi, yesterday I had brownish discharge and I don’t have my period yet. I’ve had brown discharge before it was like two months ago. I’ve had discharge for over a year and a half, I’m very moody a lot and tired. My breasts are very developed but not fully and I’m 12. My mom got her period when she was twelve

Okay so brown discharge is totally normal and it often means your first period might be getting closer, especially with all those other signs you're noticing! It's just a mix of old blood and discharge, no biggie.

Lots of things can be happening right before your period. Feeling moody and tired is super common because of the hormones changing in your body. And your breasts developing is one of the first big signs that puberty is really getting going. Since you've had discharge for a while, and your mom got her period around your age, it all points to your body getting ready for your period. Everyone's timeline is different though, so don't stress if it doesn't happen exactly when your mom's did.

If you want to get a rough idea of how close you might be, there's a quiz on this site that asks about all these signs: how close is my first period?
