Answers:
I was 13 when I started my first period (I'm 26 now)!.

No one can say exactly when a girl will get her first menstrual period, but usually girls will get it some time during puberty!.

Some girls start puberty at age 9 or 10 where others may start as late as age 15 or 16!. Each girl goes at her own pace!. So don't think that it's a bad thing or that something is wrong if your friends start puberty a little earlier/later than you!.

At the beginning of puberty, you'll notice that your breasts are developing and you're starting to grow a little hair under your arms!. Hair also will grow on your genitals (pubic hair)!. In some girls, the time from the beginning of puberty to getting the first menstrual period may take only 6 months, where as for other girls, it may take longer and can take up to 3 years!. Another sign is vaginal discharge fluid (sort of like mucus) that a girl might see or feel on her underwear!. This discharge usually begins about 6 months to a year before a girl gets her first period!.

Every girl is different, and there is a wide range of normal development during puberty!.

All I can say is that you should be patient, it will happen when your body is ready!.

Good luck :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I got mine the month before i turned 13!. It's perfectly normal if your period doesn't come till you're 16!. And yes you should talk to your mom so she can give you advice and answer any of your questions but if you feel uncomfortable/ embarrassed, talk to someone older who has had their period and who you're comfortable talking to (not friends your age because they just started and they wouldn't be able to give good advice!.) Don't worry if you don't get your period yet!. Trust me it's not anything special!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The average age in the UK is 12 and a half, but it could be any age from 8 to 20!. Girls often start around the same age as their mothers!.

If a girl's breasts are growing and/or she's noticed discharge in her knickers - chances are her period will start soon!.

REMEMBER, EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT! I started mine when i was 13!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
