When will I get my first period if my name is Anais and I was born on [redacted]?

Okay so Anais, there's no way to know the exact date your first period will show up because everyone's body is different, but there are some signs that can tell you it's getting close!

Usually, girls get their first period between ages 10 and 15, but it can totally happen a little earlier or later. It's not like there's a specific birthday that triggers it, you know? Your body has its own timeline. The biggest signs that your period is probably on its way in the next year or two are when your breasts start to develop, you have a growth spurt (like suddenly your pants are too short, ugh), and you start seeing some white or yellowish discharge in your underwear. That discharge is a super common sign that your period is coming in the next few months.

If you want a fun way to guess when your first period might arrive, there's a quiz you can take right here: how close is my first period?
