Answers:
It sounds like you're well on your way to having your first period, however 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 wish I could give you a definite answer to your question but every girl goes through the steps of puberty at their own rate!. Some girls have their first period (menarche) as early as age 8 or 9!. Other girl don't start their periods until they are 16 or 17!. However, there are ways to estimate at what age your period will start!.

Usually, a girl has her first period about 2-3 years after her breasts begin to develop!. An other indicator is when other women in your family started their periods!. Finally, a sign that you are getting really close to your first period is an increase in vaginal discharge!. After one notices this she will most likely begin her period in a few months time!.

There are things that can delay your first period such as poor diet, excessive physical activity, and high levels of stress!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

it usually happens when your 9-16!.
it could happen today, or in three years!.!. you can't know!. i think every preteen develops and attitude and its not always menstrual reasons!.
