It depends on the person. If your constantly in sports, then it might come l8r in your teenager life. But you have to have a period in order to get pregnant. Even at the age of 7 a girl can have her period and get pregnant...

Answer 2

well you never know. some girls don't get their periods until their 15 or 14 it depends on when u grow up or mature so just wait and you'll probably get before you know it

Well , i would have to say around when your 9 10 or even 11 , the youngest would have to be at nine. My mother got hers when she was 9. You never know , you will just have to wait and see.

Above is wrong. The youngest age for a period has been age 8 oldest age for it to start is 16. Most girls get it around the age 12 but your unique. I got it when i was 12 but a friend got it when she was 9 and another when she was 10. Why not find an open friend to talk to about this? I found that when i grew up mentally I grew up physically too but this may have been coinsidence
