Well your periods can start anytime from 8 to 16 years old so you may have them anytime soon.The things you are dealing with are all signs of puberty and your body will be getting ready to start periods so dont worry you will get them in time.

I didn't get my first period until I was 14, and I had all those other secondary sex characteristics since I was 10! Enjoy your freedom while you have it.

keep pads handy!

theres no way to know for sure but the signs point to YES, youre gettin it madd soon

You'll have it when you least expect it...

ull get ur period in like a year or so
DONT WRRY lol

Anytime betwwen now and 16, if you getting a discharge then it's going to be sooner rather than later...........it could be down to your diet (not eating enough)

I didn't get my first period until I was 15 (and I only had it twice and then didn't get it again until I was 18). I had boobs, discharge, and hair at 12, though. You'll get it in due time. Keep pads/tampons handy just in case. I wore (still do) pantyliners too.

In about a year or so.....Your lucky i started mine at 10 enjoy not having it while you can

you're 12?
wait awhile hun

Sounds like the other posters gave you great answers.

Just so you know, Yahoo Answers guidelines state you must be 13 or older to use the site.

So, raise you right hand and repeat, "I am now13 years old"

Congratulations!

You can get it anytime from 8-16. Considering your circumstances, you'll most likely be getting it in the next year or so. Keep pads or panty-liners ready. Maybe throw some in your backpack. If you're really worried you can wear a panty-liner and wait until it comes. Good luck with everything!

Based on what you said it could be at any moment. There's no way to tell exactly when you will get it. You should probably start carrying a tampon or pad in you purse so you will be prepared. I'm 15 and I got mine when I was a few days before my 12th birthday. Everyone's time is different, just be patient.

you most likely will start within a year you have most of the symptoms so yes.
if you are slim it might be delayed a bit or if you are stressed out, so the first thing you need to do is relax!

for more information on puberty and development go to http://www.youngwomenshealth.org/ which is a great site for young women going through puberty, it has helped me alot.
it tells you the development stages adn what to expect from your period in the years to come.

some people say that periods are terrible curses, but it is really something to celebrate! you are becoming a woman! you should be happy !!!!

good luck!

Hi -- It sounds like you are just about ready. I would say within the next year or so. You might not be regular at first. Every woman is different, please remember that. I have known some young ladies that are extremely active (exercise, running, gymnastics -- to the extreme) and have not gotten their periods until their late teens. I think I read somewhere that the average age was 13. Hope this helps and remember not to compare yourself to your friends, every young woman is different in her own special way.

well sweetie you can b getting it soon i got mine when i was 13,always keep tract on it (its best)go to this web site once you start it has alot of info.(i do mine their.)http://www.mymonthlycycles.com/home.jsp . *

Don't try to rush growing up, enjoy NOT having your period. Trust me. The only thing you can do is carry around pads to school and places so you are prepared. Those are signs of puberty. obviously. =) So it does sound like you might get it soon or within the next year. It depends how you mature and I can't tell you the answer to this one but my health teacher said a while back that the average age for girls to get their period is from the age 11-16.

Wish you the best!!

dont rush growing -up sweetie. You will get your period when your body is ready. Then when it gets her your ready for menapause, trust me I am already there.
