What if I get my first period at school? The quiz told me it’s like next few months. I’m just scared, I’m all prepared, but it’s just scary.

Okay so literally almost everyone gets their first period when they're like, just living their life. And that includes at school! It can feel like a super big deal, but it's actually pretty common and you totally got this.

First things first, don't even worry about it. If it happens at school, you'll probably just feel a little wetness or a light stain on your underwear. It's usually not a huge gush of blood or anything dramatic like in movies. You might not even notice it right away! The best thing you can do is have a small period kit ready in your backpack. Like, just a tiny pouch with:

• A pad or two (the thin kind are good for starters)
• A clean pair of underwear
• Maybe some wet wipes

That way, if you feel something, you can just slip to the bathroom, use a pad, and change if you need to. No biggie, nobody even has to know. And if you don't have a kit, most schools have a nurse's office or even a trusted teacher who can help you out with a pad, because they've seen it all before.

It's totally normal to feel a little scared about it, especially when you know it's coming soon. But getting your period is just a sign that your body is growing up, and that's actually pretty cool. Plus, once it happens, you'll be like, "Wait, that's it?" and it won't be so scary anymore.
