What are some signs of getting your period?

Answer 1

Cramping in your lower abdomen, your vagina tingles, white slimy substance (discharge) comes from the vagina. And the most sure fire sign, is if you see blood on your panties. So don't freak out.

Whitish goo (discharge) comes out and it last for about a year so say you start getting the (goo) in 6th grade then you will probably get your period in 7th grade that's the usual age people get it in but you can be older too but if your 17 or 18 and haven't got it then see a doctor.

Answer 2

Alright i already have my period and, here is what I had

• stomach cramps (cramps in your lower abdomen)
• Headaches (sometimes migraines)
• Mood swings ( first your mad then 5 seconds later your happy then sad)
• Discharge (yellow/green/white goo that is sticky and goes on your panties. Wear a thin liners by "U by:Kotex:". That is what I did and i did not feel it at all.)
• your boobs (Breasts) get bigger. ( if you see that it is getting bigger, wear a sports bra until you are use to the fact of you wearing a bra.)
• growth Spurt ( you for example are 4 feet and 11 inches in a month you are 4 feet and 16 inches that is a growth spurt)
• Weight gain ( you gain weight)
• Body shape ( your hips gets wider and your waist gets smaller.)
• Acne (on your back, face,chest ect.)
• Hair growth ( hair on your vagina maybe, and your under arms)
• Oily hair (your hair get the oily feeling and that is caused by hormones)
• Body odor ( you may smell different on your under arm and other parts on the body like feet and round the vagina)

• spotting ( in your panties you may find red thick stuff. that is blood)

That is all hopefully that helped you girls out. Have fun with it. That is just an expression. Periods can be very painful to some girls. I got mine bad.

I'm with ya'! Discharge is a good sign. The time averages from 8 months - 2 years! But, it can be shorter or longer. I've had mine for over a year. Armpit and pubic hair are also sign, but you may not get them before your period. Acne, I have it, but not everyone gets it. Cramps and aches are really close signs!

Answer 4

most commonly discharge-- i had it for maybe ten months before i got my first period. you might also get back pains in your lower back or in general, those are cramps, even if they just feel like you're sore. you might also feel weak and tired the day you get your first period. just make sure you are prepared (pads, wipes, hygiene products). I'd recommend starting with pads, especially if you're younger.
