So so I am wondering when would I get my first ever period?

Okay, so there's no exact date for when your first period will show up, because everyone is different! But usually it happens when you're between 10 and 13 years old, though it can totally be earlier or later for some people.

Your body usually gives you some hints before your period starts. Like, the first thing is usually breast buds forming, which are like little bumps under your nipples. After that, you'll probably have a growth spurt and hair will start growing under your arms and in your pubic area. Then, about 6 to 12 months before your first period, you might start noticing some clear or white discharge in your underwear.

All of these things mean your body is getting ready, which is super exciting! If you want to get a general idea of how close you might be, there's a quiz on this site: how close is my first period?
