Usually the white stuff (vaginal discharge) starts 1 to 2 years before you get your period. within a few days of your period starting, it will probably get a little heavier, so just make sure that when that starts happening, don't wear light colored shorts/pants. And if you get cramps in your lower stomach and you might get moody or grumpy easily, that's a sign that your period is coming on soon. Hope i helped! :)

You can get it at anytime. I got mine at 13,but my mother got hers at 15.so it could be at anytime. But if you feel stomache pains.always have a pad in your purse/backpack. Congrats on becoming a women (:

well thats a sign that tells you your close and it could come in weeks or even a few months, when you start having cramps (lower stomach pain) be sure to have a back up
