My period has not come yet! Help!
I am 12 and all my friends have started but not me! I have discharge a lot and it comes just anytime so I don't know when it will come! My friends say that they just saw it in their panties. I don't know what to do, and I tell them that I have started.
I am freaking out because I have cramps, headaches, and moodswings. Sometimes my vagina or something in there will start to ache, like I am being beaten by myself. It hurts really bad and about once a month I'll have to ditch school because of what I just said and ill feel like throwing up, I can't walk when this happens because it leaves me to weak to. My headaches are pounding my head all the time. Also, I will not be able to see anything for several minutes, this happens irregularly and I don't think that this is normal. Help me please, I am begging you! It hurts so bad I cry. Please help.

First off, it sounds like you could start bleeding at any time. When I first started, I had painful symptoms for about... 3 months and then one day bam, it happened. I was 14 when I got my first period. So don't worry. It happens at any age ranging from 11 and up. I've heard of some girls never starting until they were older than I was. Secondly, what that boy said about having sex shortly after starting your period, that is total lie. Like I said, I was 14 when I started, I'm 25 now, and I'm able to have children. I'm currently pregnant with my second child, and to state the obvious, I am still alive. Don't cave into peer pressure. Ignore the idiots who say you have to have sex at a young age. You don't. You can wait to get intimate when you are older. I suggest you speak with the girls in your group being told this lie, even ones you may not get along with, because getting pregnant at such a young age, it's very difficult. I've seen many struggle., but get all those girls together and speak with your sex education teacher. A female of course, and explain about what a boy has been saying. But I can tell you, 100% from experience, if you don't have sex after starting your period, you will NOT die. So, do what I suggested, speak with your sex ed teacher, with all the other girls being told this and have this lie put to rest. If you are too afraid to speak with the teacher, then you NEED to tell your mother. Someone who can take care of this horrible rumor, before someone ends up making a mistake. And I would suggest doing it quickly, because with how young girls are today, I'm sorry to say, it's sad. So, move quickly with this, not only for yours, but for other young women's sakes as well.
