how many days I could get my period just asking

Soso answered

Periods usually last somewhere between 2 and 7 days. It's totally normal for it to be different for everyone, and it can even change for you personally from one period to the next.

When you first start getting your period, it can be super unpredictable. Like, one month it might be 3 days, and the next it could be 6. That's just your body figuring things out, and doctors say it's normal for the first year or two for things to be a bit all over the place. Eventually, it usually settles into a more regular pattern.

If your period is lasting way longer than 7 days, or if it's super short, like less than 2 days, and it's happening all the time, it's a good idea to chat with a trusted grown-up. They can help you figure out if you should talk to a doctor about it, just to make sure everything's good. You can also use the Soso app to track how many days your period lasts, so you can see your own patterns over time!

When do I get my period based on my quiz

Soso answered

A first period can come anywhere from about 9 to 15, sometimes later, and the average is around 12, but nobody can give you an exact date. Even with a quiz, your body works on its own timeline. There is no set age, but your body usually…
