anytime between now and the next 3 yrs. It is different with each woman/girl.
I was 11 when I started. My duaghter was 12.
I had a friend who was 14.
If you don't start by the time you are 15 then you should mention it to the Dr

I was 11. I read the average age is 10-14. Don't rush it. And when you get it don't be ashamed it's a natural thing and without it none of us will be here. I'm not saying it's easy but I know a lot of people make women feel ashamed or like it's something to hide. Also it may be irregular. The first time I got it was 7 days.. the next time 3 and now I finally have been getting it for 7 days for the past 10 years. Just make sure to keep some Aleve (aspirin causes blood thinning) and a heat pad. A good thing for cramps is a warm bath.

Although most girls get their period between 11-14 years old, you could start your period anywhere from 8-17 years old.

You could narrow that down by taking clues from your body. During puberty, when your body becomes sexually mature, you'll have some of these changes that show your period's on its way. (By the way, these changes may happen in a different order than listed here.)

Developing Breasts. First, you'll get breast "buds". (Your breasts then can take up to 3-4 years to fully develop.) Generally you will get your period 2-3 years after your breasts start developing.
Growing Pubic Hair. Right after your breasts start to form, you'll start developing pubic hair. It will be soft and thin at first, then gradually become coarser. Your period usually arrives around 1-2 years after the hair development.
Discharge. This is the big sign. You'll start to experience vaginal discharge that will be either white or yellowish. If you like, you may want to start using Alldays Pantiliners to protect you underwear. You period should start around 6-12 (but up to 18) months after the start of discharge.
There's one more way to figure out when you'll start menstruating: Ask your mom. You'll probably get your period within a year or so of when she got hers.

Since you'll only have a general idea of when you'll get your period, you might want to do some planning.

Most girls will use pads at least for their first period. Your first period will probably be fairly light so Always Thin Maxi Regular or Always Thin Ultra Regular would be a good choice of pad. If you are physically small, you may want to consider Always Thin Ultra Slender. It's a good idea to keep a pad or two hidden in your locker at school, and carry another in your backpack. This way you won't be caught off guard when it does happen.

Relax, you will get your period, and you'll have them for a long time

Eleven years is a little early; I'm guessing you'll start around 12 to 13, but even starting at 16 or 17 is well within the range of "normal."

Every person is different. Most girls start between the age of 9-13. You will know when its on the way, you may get the PMS which is the bloating and cramps just before that time comes.

I got mine when I was 11. But everyone is different you will probably get yours between now and 16. It ranges anywhere from 8-17. Some may be even later it all just depends on who you are.

Um... is this a joke? i thought 11 year olds could spell... But if it isn't well, your periods will start when your body is ready, my periods didn't start 'till i was 12 and a half, and my friends started later. there is no "right time" to start. Some girls start early, it's just a random time when it happens. They start around 2 years after your breasts start developing, and shortly after you notice pubic hair starting to come through. i hope this helped :D xXxXx

I started my period when I was 10. My mom was 9. It just depends on the person.
