I had my first period on May 15, 2026, but I've never had sex with anyone and my period hasn't come until today. Can any drink make it come, for example, lemon and salt, or some teas? Remembering that I've never had sex with anyone and sometimes clear mucus comes out, and I'm still waiting for my second period.

No, dear, there isn't any magic drink of lemon with salt or tea that will make your period come. This is a big myth that has nothing to do with your body's reality.

Look, after your first period, which we call menarche, it's super normal for your menstrual cycle to be all over the place for a long time. Like, your next period might not come the following month, or it might take a long time, or it might come more than once very close together. Doctors say it's normal for the first year or two to be a bit crazy like this because your body is still learning to deal with hormones and regulate everything.

What's happening?

Your body is going through a lot of internal changes, and the hormones that control menstruation are still adjusting. It's a process that takes time. The clear mucus you sometimes see is a great sign that your body is working and that hormones are around, making things happen. Not having had sex doesn't change anything about your menstrual cycle either; they are different things, okay?

What to do?

The best thing to do is keep noticing what your body does. Note the day your period came (the first one), if the clear mucus appears. Trying to relax and not be anxious is important, you know? Stress can even mess with your hormones. Eat well, sleep well, do things you enjoy. Your body will find its rhythm, you can trust it!
