Soo when is my first period gonna start?

Okay so there's no exact date, but your body usually gives you some pretty good hints that your first period is on its way.

Most people get their first period between ages 10 and 13, but it can totally happen earlier or later. It's really different for everyone and there's no single right time. The main thing is to pay attention to other changes happening with your body, because those are like little countdowns.

What to look for

Some big signs that your period is coming up include:

• Breast development: This is usually the first big sign. Your breasts will start to grow and get a little tender.
• Pubic and underarm hair: You'll start noticing hair growing in your pubic area and under your arms.
• Growth spurt: You might have a time when you suddenly grow taller really fast.
• Vaginal discharge: This is usually the sign that means your period is super close. It's a clear or white fluid that you'll see in your underwear. It means your body is getting ready, and your period will probably show up within 6 to 12 months after you start noticing discharge.

It's cool to know what to expect and be prepared, so you aren't surprised. If you want to find out roughly when yours might be coming, there's a quiz on this site: how close is my first period?
