Good news! You are perfectly normal.

When you first start getting periods, they are not usually regular. It's not unusual to skip a month or two.

Discharge is normal too and changes based on our age and where we are in our cycles. Before you start getting your period, the discharge is often like white/sticky. This is primarily just skin cells that slough off of the vagina. When during your cycle between periods you may experience whitish discharge or very clear runny discharge. (I know it's great being a girl huh?)

The only time you should worry is if the discharge is some color other than white/clear or if it smells bad, which can be signs of something that you'll want your doctor to check.



You could just have irregular periods, this is very common especially these days. If you dont get it in a few days though I would defiantly talk to your mother about this, and with the discharge sometimes this can be normal its another way for cleaning out the system like your period, i know it sounds weird, if anything talk to a gyno. They have ones that you can talk to in person or out of person without having your parents go with just for advice. Anything other then advice (prescriptions, etc) have your parents go with you, even if its your dad just waiting out in the waiting room.

Good luck!

Yes that is most likely normal you don't always have them on the same day and you could be irregular and if that is so you need to be checked by the doctors so you can get regulated is there anyone you can talk to near your home if not you need to so you can go to the doctors just to make sure everything is going good i am pretty sure everything is fine but i don't know you and im not a doctor.



Ok so firstly, WELCOME TO WOMANHOOD!!! and, yes that's perfectly normal! It's called and irregular period, meaning it doesn't come regularily. Now that you got ur period u call ur discharge "spotting". Well I need to say one more thing. Periods can be fun! lol yeaah! Hope I helped!



You probably are just irregular, especially if you're younger. I've had it for 3 years and I still get it about every 2 months. If you're sexually active and very concerned, you should get a test, but you should be okay. :)



hm? did the discharge start at 8 that when sometime starts it normal s could be irregular too so no worrys it fine
