Hi,
I'm 13 to and I'm getting the same thing! It's nice to know I'm not alone!. My doctor said I was supposed to start my period in 1 year but I'm afraid the white stains (called discharge) in my underwear is a sign I might be getting my period soon!. I'm kinda scared but it also makes me feel more like a teenager!Www@Answer-Health@Com

White stains and discharge is normal!. No way to tell if that is "pre period" or not!. But be sure you are changing underwear & bathe everyday, and wear cotton ones!. you could wear mini pads if you are worried!. You will probably start your period soon, 13 is the average age!. Good Luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
