How do I know if I just started my Period?!


Question: How do I know if I just started my Period?
Ok so I am 16 and a pretty late bloomer. Anyway, yesterday I had a bunch of brown goo kind of stuff on my underwear and on the toilet paper. And so I had a tampon and used it and everything was fine but now I have had almost no flow today. What is this?

Answers:

it's probably your period. it may only appear as splotches and irregular for your first few cycles. i remember when i started my period in gr 6, i didn't know what it was but i would have brown splotches on my underwear and it only lated a few days... now i practically get a 6day flow.

be careful to only wear the correct tampon necessary for your flow (light).



I think that's the beginnings! It will take probably months for your body to regulate your periods to a more predictable month to month happening. Soon you will know what to expect and can predict pretty close to the day that it will start. Keep a calendar and mark down each time you begin and how often in between till the next one...



This is probably your period it can be pretty strange and inconsistent when you first get it. This sounds like your first period though!



Usually you do have brown fluid in your underwear when you first start, at least I did. Sounds like you've started. Congrats.



YES that's EXACTLY what happened with me the day before I got my first period!

It should come very soon. Probably tomorrow. Maybe next few days but VERY soon!

CONGRATS! You're a woman now :D
