My discharge is getting thicker and I’m having cramps and other signs of PMS (I think). My second period is supposed to arrive in 6 days and I know that in the beginning of getting periods it’s not regular but for some people it is. Do you think I will get my 2nd period in 6 days or around 6 days?

Okay so it sounds like your body is definitely getting ready for something, and it could totally be your second period coming in about 6 days! Thick discharge and cramps are super common signs that your period is on its way, or that you're about to ovulate (which happens before your period). Your body is doing its thing.

It's really normal for periods to be a bit all over the place when you first start, like for the first year or two. Some people do get pretty regular cycles right away, but it's more common for them to be a little unpredictable. So even if you have those period signs, it might come exactly in 6 days, or a few days earlier or later. Your body is still figuring out its rhythm, and that's okay!

Then I went to bed and put a panty liner on and I woke up today and there was nothing there. Also the quiz said I would get it in a few months, so I guess I’m just confused cuz I didn’t expect it

Okay, so seeing a little bit of brown discharge can totally happen right before your period officially starts, or even when your body is just figuring things out. It's super common for your first periods to be a bit weird and not follow a…

Then I went to bed and put a panty liner on and I woke up today and there was nothing there. And I did t have any symptoms that day besides being tired, having acne, and the day before my back REALLY hurt.

Soso answered

That can be how a first period starts, so tell a grown-up what you noticed: they can help with supplies, and check with a doctor if it isn't a period. First periods are often super light, spotty, or brownish instead of bright red blood…
