1) pads rule. ONLY WEAR TAMPONS IN THE POOL!!

2) cramps and mood swings are thing to expect.

3) goes on for 2-8 days

4) always have pads on u. wherever u go, have them with u. u nvr know when u will get ur period.

1) that's your opinion, it can be different for others :)

2) Yup, especially during PMS.

3) It's actually 3-7, according to experienced doctors.

4. Yup. If you don't have any, use toilet paper!

i got my period at 9. Its not all whats its cracked up to be. But, however, u do start puberty. pimples, breast buds, etc. Its pretty annoying. But other than that, periods are ok. cramps once in a  while, but thats it. (well, also mood swings.)

I am home-schooled so I can help you. I also got mine early! They aren't to bad, but sometimes the pads are a little uncomfortable, but now I barely notice! I would definitely tell your mom or your dad or a sibling or a trusted adult. It might feel weird to tell them at first, but afterwards, it will feel like a huge weight has been lifted off your shoulders.

Like Minecraftnerd said, it depends on the age. Someone might get it as early as 9, or as late as 16.

Make sure to tell your mom or dad, and get some pads.
