My breasts look like a triangle when I look at them and like a circle with a line underneath in the mirror. I am 10 years old, 4'10 ft and 82 pounds in the 5th grade with white sticky discharge and I have cramps right now with no period. What age am I going to get it?

Okay, so it sounds like your body is definitely getting ready for your first period! Your breasts changing shape and feeling crampy are super common signs.

First, your breasts can look different depending on how you're looking at them, and it's totally normal for them to be all kinds of shapes as they grow. There's no one "right" way for them to look. They are usually one of the first signs of puberty, so good job noticing them changing!

Then there's the white sticky discharge. This is literally your body cleaning itself out, and it's a huge sign that your period is coming in the next few months to a year. And the cramps? Oh my gosh, so many of us get period-like cramps even before our first period shows up. It's like your body is doing a test run! You might also notice a growth spurt, like you're suddenly growing taller faster.

Most people get their first period between ages 10 and 15, but it can be earlier or later. From what you're describing, with the breast development, discharge, and cramps, it sounds like your body is definitely on the way. I can't tell you an exact age or date, because everyone is different, but you're hitting all the big milestones. If the cramps are really bothering you, it's always a good idea to talk to a trusted grown-up about them. They might have some tips for making you more comfortable.
