Is it a sign that I started my period if I wake up and are sweaty down there and if it deals like I peed my pants?

Waking up feeling sweaty or like you peed your pants is probably not a sign that your period started, but it might mean you're experiencing some discharge. Discharge is totally normal and it looks like a clear or whitish liquid that shows up in your undies.

Okay so, discharge can sometimes feel a little wet or notice-able, and it actually means your body is doing its job and being super healthy. It changes a little throughout your cycle, even before you get your first period, and it's basically your body cleaning itself out. Lots of girls get it before their first period and it's a good sign that things are getting ready.

If you're worried about feeling too wet or anything, you can try wearing a panty liner, which is like a super thin pad for everyday use. But usually, just changing your underwear regularly and keeping clean down there is enough. If the wet feeling also comes with itching, a weird smell, or a color that's not clear or white, then it's a good idea to tell a grown-up just to make sure everything's okay.
