Answers:
Well, you may or may not get your period for a while!. It all depends!. Ask your mom when she got hers!. My friend's mom started when she was 15, but my friend strted when she was 11! It kinda sucked for my friend though because she got it on an airplane! xD

Your cramps may be a sign that you may be eating someting that you body does not like, or you could just have erm!.!. gas!? :D

Have you started to grow your bobbs at all yet!?

The height may also be a sign that you could start any time soon!.

The discharge doesn't neccesarily mean that you could strt your period any time soon!. I have been having sicharge for almost 2 years, and still no period!

Your friends interest probably will not change when she is on her period! Yoiur period shouldn't affect you that badly! She may have some mood swings but they shouldn't be like scream in your face ones!

Well, getting your period at 10 is a little early, but if she got it and she is healthy then that isn't abnormal!.

Now for the story that you requested!. This will probabaly bring up a chuckle even though it kinda sucked for my friend!.

My friend Jessie got her period on christmas eve at a dinner party!

We joked about it a little and I said what a nice gift! lol

Also, one of my friends got her period while sliding down a slide at a water park!. :D

Don't worry about getting your period too much!. Who knows, maybe you'll be like me and still not have your period at 14 years old!

First of all, it's totally normal for your friend to get her period at age 10!. She might get a bit grumpy during her period, but you just have to understand that all women get like this!. Regarding her interests, you will change the things you're interested in as you get older!. It's just a part of life!
As to when YOU will get your period, there's no exact way to tell!. You've got all of the signs, but those can last for years until you get your period!.
I got mine when I was 12 and I had all of those signs for a few years before it happened!.
Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

well it depends ask your mom when she got hers but its unusual to get your first period at 11 im 12 and i don't have mine yet!.

trust me you don't want to get yours anytime soon my friend has hers and i stinks when you cant go in the pool your always cranky and have bad cramps!. but sense your having discharge then if you have had the discharge for a year you will probably
get it in a year

Em!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know it's normal to get it at a young age, and discharge doesn't really mean anything!. I had it for years before I got mine!.
Ask your mom when she got hers, because it might be around the same age, if not, then just wait!.
Plus, girly, you don't want your period!. It's too much of a bother and you get really moody!.
I don't know why girls want to rush into this stuff!. I hate having my period!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you should just wait till it happens trust me its nothing to really be wanting i mean all it means is that you are a woman now and that your going to be having a period every month!. so just wait it out and just let it happen!.


with her having her period her attitude might change and she might become more aggravated and very easy to annoy or she might get emotional or she might not get affectedWww@Answer-Health@Com

You could be getting it soon or not even close to soon!. You'll never know!. I think, but not sure, that most girls get there period between 12 and 13 years old!. Don't rush it, though!. Once you get it you have it till your way older!. Yes, it is normal for your bff to get hers at 10, my sister did!. She might be a little moody but you'll know why and when she dose don't take it offensviely!.

Hope This Helped! =]Www@Answer-Health@Com

Of course it is normal ! Every girl is different !.

You could get yours soon, or you could get yours in 4 years !. Nobody will know the exact date !.

I started getting discharge a LONG time before I got my period, as well as getting taller, etc !.

Just be prepared :) Wear pantyliners everyday !Www@Answer-Health@Com

well i didnt get mine until i was in seventh grade(13 years old)
______________________________________!.!.!.
-you have to at least be 100 pounds to start ur period
- it can start from when ur about eight years old as long as until high school
theres no certain way i can tell u when it will start but it sounds like it is close on its way so good luck !Www@Answer-Health@Com

everyone's body is different, i didn't get mine till i was 14, and don't look forward to it most likely your gonna hate it, she could change a little but it shouldn't be a drastic change,Www@Answer-Health@Com

that cant be determined, every girl develops diffrently!. ive known girls who didnt get their periods until they were 16!. dont worry about itWww@Answer-Health@Com

I got my first period when I was 13, every bodys body is different so you never can predict when it will happen!. Just start carrying a pocket book and keep some pads in there just in case!. GoodluckWww@Answer-Health@Com

Ask your mom how old she was when she got hers!.!.!.!. yours will probably come around the same time!.

I got mine the same day TO THE DAY as my mom!.!.!.!.
we both got ours 10 days before our 13th birthdays!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

at the latesttttt when u are around 16

I got it whenI was 10 but that is very young


YOUUUUU DO NOTTTTTTT WANT YOUR PERIOD! BELIEVE ME! enjoy your time left until menopausWww@Answer-Health@Com

Way to go Kim!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Judging by what has been going on with you I say quite soon!. Those are symptoms of pms!. As far as your friend being mean to you because her period I doubt that will happen!. As female when our period is approaching we do sometimes get a little moody but not always and not everyone!. And its good that you are prepared for it to start at school!. I started mine in 5th grade when I had on a white dress!. Interesting day to say the least!.

It sounds like you will get it soon!. The longest you'll have to wait is probably a couple of years!. Just watch out for lower stomach pains, brown discharge, moodiness, headaches, and backaches!. That is signs you might get before your frist period!.

And unless she was already mean, she shouldn't really be mean-er!. LOL!. She might be emotional a couple days before her period, but that's about it!.

And 10 is a little early, but not the weirdest thing ever!. I've heard of 8 year olds getting it!.

As for a story!. This was a friend, not me!. Well we were in line waiting to go on stage for a dance competition, at ages 9 and 10, when all of a sudden blood started dripping down her leg!. She got really mad at me all of a sudden because she thought I spilled my juice on her dress so she couldn't dance, and everyone would like me better!. But the dance instructor explained to her that she was fine, and it was normal!.


Good luck!.


It will come soon enough!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

um it's possible!. but i usually don't get cramps until AFTER my period starts, im not saying that it can't happen, but thats how it works with me!. Also my breasts start getting more tender (hurt more)!. I got mine when i saw 12 or 13 i think!. ALL girls basically get discharge, i get them all the time, i doesn't really matter for me when i'm starting!. So just be prepared at school (even though its summer now so you shouldn't have to worry about it!.!.)

and i think my mom got hers when she was 9, so its not weird to get it at 10!.

oh and im 16 by the way!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
