Periods: Is there any way to make mine start for the first time?
Well im 13 and i still have not started my first period, ive had some REAL cramps about a week ago and they hurt so bad! It was on the first day of school an di was in Career Managment. Its lasted for a day or so. Well i have boobs and hair down yonder' and discharge and i have had all this (plus armpit hair) for almost 3 years now and i still have not gotten my period... Me and my friend are in a contest to see who will start first and she is sure it will be me. I hope it is me, even though shes a few months older she just started developing boobs and has not gotton pubic hair or alot of armpit hair like i have. Shes really jealous. I try to encourage her about it and make her feel better. I dont want to feel like a bad friend to her though by thinking i will get it first. But is there anyway to make it come faster? I want to tell her about it and use it myself... I just really want some help. By the way we are in the 8th grade. And what do i do if i start in the middle of class???

Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
You know, just something to think about here:
Every woman I know would laugh at this contest of yours... why? Women generally hate their period. It is usually painful, a bit messy and very limiting as for what you can do at certain times.
Please try not to be in such a hurry. I was discussing this question with my ladyfriend and she mentioned that: "Oh she thinks she wants it, but once she gets it she will hate it and wish it never came."
I guess Peeps covered everything else.
Take care, and enjoy the time you guys have left without having to worry about this stuff.

There is no way to make your period start faster.
This is a part of life and a part of growing up. You will start your period when your body is matured enough to have babies.
Stay active in sports and maintain a healthy weight.
Since you're of-age then carry a pad around in your pocket or purse. If you start in the middle of class and haven't gotten it on your clothing (like you go to pee and it's on the toilet paper when you wipe) then just put the pad on. You might want to practice putting pads on panties around the house a few times before venturing out.
If you start your period mid-class and find you've bled through your clothing then calmly ask to call home. Call your mother (or father, whoever is home) and ask them to bring you down a second set of panties and jeans because you've started your period. Everyone will understand and will try not to make a big scene of it to avoid embarrassment. It's a part of being a grown-up woman so things like this are expected anyway.
Just be healthy and your period will start when your body is read. Eat right. Exercise plenty. Maintain a healthy weight. Do some things to relax and de-stress. Avoid drugs and alcohol. Let your body be itself. You'll start your period before you know it and you'll be wishing it would just stop ;)
