How can I find my first period

You can't really "find" your first period, because it just kinda shows up on its own. But your body gives you clues it's getting ready, so you know it's on the way.

Your body usually starts changing a few years before your period actually arrives. Like, your breasts start to grow, and you might have a growth spurt where you get taller super fast. Then, usually about six months to a year before your first period, you'll probably notice a clear or white discharge in your underwear. This is totally normal and means your body is getting ready for everything to start.

There's no exact date your first period will magically appear, because everyone's body is different. Most girls get theirs between 10 and 13 years old, but it can totally happen earlier or later. It's all good. If you want to get an idea of how close you might be, there's a quiz that can help you figure it out: how close is my first period?
