I always get bullied for not getting my first period yet,I am in Hong Kong and I am turning 11 this year,is there any thing that can make me get my first period faster?

No, there is nothing you can do or take yourself, no food or trick, that will make your first period come faster, and turning 11 without one is completely normal.

First of all, whoever is teasing you about this has no idea what they are talking about. A first period can come anywhere from about 9 to 15, sometimes later, and the average is around 12. At 10 or 11, tons of people have not gotten theirs yet. Your body runs on its own internal clock, and nobody gets to rush it with special foods or tricks.

How puberty actually happens

Your body usually gives you some clues along the way instead of just jumping straight to a period. Here is what tends to happen first:

• Breasts starting to grow, which is usually the first sign (the period often comes about 2 years later, and that varies a lot)
• Pubic and underarm hair, usually soon after, though hair first is normal too
• A growth spurt (the period often comes about a year after the fastest growing, and that varies a lot too)
• Clear, white or off-white discharge, which can start some months before a first period (if it changes colour or smell, itches or feels sore, or it hurts when you pee, tell a grown-up)

A period before 9, no period by 15, or no breast growth or other puberty signs by 13 means telling a grown-up so a doctor can check.

Being bullied about your body is awful, so please tell a parent, a teacher, or another grown-up you trust at school about what these kids are saying. You do not have to just sit there and take that, and you definitely do not have to feel weird about where your body is right now.

If the feelings ever get so big that they scare you, or you don't feel able to keep yourself safe, tell a grown-up you trust straight away.

Btw, if you want to see where you might be on the timeline, there is a quiz on this site: how close is my first period?
