When am I going to get my period

Okay, so predicting your exact first period can be tricky because everyone is different, but there are definitely signs your body gives you!

Most girls get their first period between 10 and 13, but some can get it earlier or later, like up to 15 or 16. It's really all over the place, like literally. The biggest sign that it's getting close is usually breast development starting, and then after that you might notice some vaginal discharge, which is usually clear or white stuff in your undies. That often starts a few months before your first period, so it's a good heads-up!

Another super common sign is a growth spurt. Like, literally one day you're your normal height and the next you feel like you grew a foot overnight. That's your body getting ready for big stuff, including your period, because everything is connected.

Btw if you want to find out roughly when yours is coming, there's a quiz on this site: how close is my first period? — takes like a minute.
