My period stopped but idk it it's gonna come back. How do I know? And is it normal for that to happen?

Yes, it is super normal for your period to be a little all over the place when you first start, and it might even disappear for a while and then come back.

Why it happens

Okay so, your body is still figuring things out during puberty, and that includes your hormones. Hormones are like the little messengers that tell your body when to do period stuff. When you first start, these messengers aren't always on a perfect schedule. So sometimes your period might come a little early, or a little late, or just stop for a few months and then show up again. It doesn't mean anything is wrong, it just means your body is still setting up its internal calendar and sometimes it has to hit the snooze button for a bit.

What to expect

It can take a few years for your period to really settle into a regular rhythm. Like, doctors say it's normal for the first year or two to be all over the place, short cycles, long cycles, missing cycles. Don't stress too much about it. Just keep an eye on things and try to log when your period does show up. That way you can see what your normal pattern ends up being, even if it's kinda random at first.

If you're worried or if your period stops for a really long time (like, more than six months) and you're feeling other stuff going on, it's always a good idea to talk to a trusted grown-up or a doctor. They can just make sure everything's okay, but usually, it's just your body doing its thing.
