This was in June and now none of this has happened anymore.

Look, it's super normal for your period to be a bit crazy at first, like it comes one month and then disappears for a while, or comes very little and stops. Doctors even say that the body takes time to get used to it and establish a rhythm. It's as if your body is learning to do all this and hasn't quite got the hang of it yet, you know?

What could it be?

It's because, when we start menstruating, hormones are still in a crazy back and forth. They're not in balance, like a perfectly working clock, so your period can be late, early, or even skip months. This is super common in the first few years of menstruation. No need to freak out!

What to do?

Keep paying attention to your body's signals, even if your period doesn't come. See if you feel cramps, if your mood changes, if you have discharge. To help you understand better what's going on, the app Sosô is great for tracking these things, even if it's not your period itself. This way, you can get an idea of what's normal for YOUR body, and if any strange pattern appears, you and your family can talk to a doctor. And if you want an idea of when the next one might be, there's a quiz here on the site: how close is my first period?
