I took the period quiz and it says I will get it soon like in a few months

No way, that's so cool that the quiz gave you a heads-up! It's like your body is giving you a little preview, which is actually super helpful so you're not totally surprised when it happens. Getting your period in a few months means your body is doing all the behind-the-scenes work to get ready, and that's awesome.

Keep an eye out for any signs, like new discharge (that white or yellowish stuff in your underwear), breast buds growing, or a growth spurt. Those are usually pretty good clues that your first period is getting closer. You don't have to stress about it though, just know it's coming and you'll be totally ready.

What you can do now

Since it's coming soon, it's a great time to get a period kit ready. This is just a small bag with stuff you might need, so if your period shows up at school or when you're out, you're prepared. You can put things like:

• A couple of pads (regular size is good to start)
• Some extra underwear
• Pain reliever (if your grown-up says it's okay)
• Maybe a little chocolate, because why not?

It's also a good idea to chat with a trusted grown-up, like your mom, aunt, or an older sister. They've been through it and can share their tips and make sure you have everything you need. You're going to do great!
