Hi, I'm old enough to be your grandfather. It is questions such as your as to why I became an advisor on this site. Hopefully the wisdom that comes with age will be helpful to you.

Everyone starts through puberty at different ages. You have just entered you teen years, when your body is ready it will signal the different secreter to start secreting the hormones needed for the changes your body will go through.

I can see this from your point of view; all of your friends are starting to change. They are growing breast, loosing their baby fat and starting to get the body of a young women. You on the other hand still look like you always have. You see this as bad points.

Now lets look at this from say my view point. The older you are when your body starts to change the more mature and easier it will be for you to deal with the hormonal changes that come with going through puberty. Not to mention the cramps, bloating and down right irritability that come with your period each month.

Have you noticed your friends changing not just in body features but in how they handle situations, say in school. Are they getting in trouble with teachers more than they use to? Are they more irritable, short tempered and at times just hard to be with? This is all part of going through puberty at an early age. The older you are when puberty starts the better equipped you will be both physically and mentally to handle it.

My advice is to relax, puberty will come, when your body is ready. There is nothing you can do to rush it. Regardless at what age your siblings or relatives may have been wen they started to go through puberty you will start when your body is ready. Remember each of us is a unique individual and follow our own paths.

I hope I have helped.

Everyone develops at different rates.

I have friends who got their periods at 11 and started developing breasts before that but I also know people who didn't until they were 16, they're all normal.

Discharge is a sign that you will probably start your period within the next year or so. Usually you will start to develop hair under your arms and in your pubic area as well as the beginnings of breasts before you get your first period, so it's likely that this will all happen soon too.

Why not try asking some of the females in your family mother/sisters'/aunts etc when they started their periods? It's likely that you'll be similar to them and it might reassure you.
