It said I have a few months

Okay so this sounds like you took the "how close is my first period?" quiz on the website! That quiz is super good at guessing, but it's not like a crystal ball, you know? It uses all the stuff you tell it about your body changes to give you an idea.

Your body is just getting ready, and everyone's journey is a little bit different. A "few months" is a pretty common answer because getting your first period isn't usually a surprise overnight thing. Your body goes through a whole process, and when you start seeing things like breast buds, pubic hair, and then discharge, that's when things are really getting set up. Sometimes it's right on time with what the quiz says, and sometimes it's a little earlier or later. It's all totally normal.

Just keep an eye on your body, paying attention to what's going on. And maybe keep some period products handy, just in case! You can also check out the Soso blog for more about what to expect before your first period.
