Hi. Welcome to the Q and A part of the site. Here's a chance to get answers to your questions without actually having to ask them out loud. There's also a list of other resources at the end of the section. If you're still thirsting for knowledge, talk with a parent, teacher or other trusted adult.
* When will I get my first period?
* Good question. Most girls get their first period between the ages of 9 and 16. Most means the majority - not everyone will fall into this category. Anyway, it follows the development of breasts, hips, waist, pubic hair, and a growth spurt. Put those clues together and they usually add up to imminent period alert. In addition, a girl will often weigh at least 100 pounds before menstruation begins. Genetics also plays a role. If possible, find out when your mom got her first period to get an estimate of when yours may arrive.
* What will happen when I get my first period?
* Usually a first period is very light. It will probably be a few spots of bright red blood or a brown sticky stain that shows up on your underpants. If you are out in public and don't have a pad with you, don't panic. Remain calm. This is a time when true female bonding occurs. Hopefully, your mother or other adult relative will be close by and can supply you with a feminine product. If not, try Plan B. Ask a friend or other woman if she has a pad. It's a well-kept secret that every woman at some time in her life has had to ask another woman for a pad. Yes, it's embarrassing, but you can rely on other women to see you through this situation. And in all honesty, first periods were designed really well because it is usually so little that it won't seep through to your outer clothes.
* How long will my period last?
* Everyone is different. It can last between two and seven days. Most girls have it for about five days.
* What should I do when I get my first period?
* In addition to what's covered above, it's a good idea to have feminine products ready for that first period, and to know how to use them. (See the Kotex products section of our site for more information about these products.)

I don't know what the REP is but the best thing to do is go to your Mom, tell her and she will guide you. It might be a good idea to get some midol as it will help with the bloating and cramps. Your mom may take you to get some pads that fit your body size better. Usually once a woman has a baby she needs wider and longer protection so her pads may make you feel like you are wearing a diaper.
But don't be scared. It's a normal thing. If you haven't had the "sex talk " with your mom, now would be a good time to.

Calm down. It's okay! First go to your mom's bathroom, or if you're at a public place, go to the nearest tampon/pad dispenser and get a pad. (Tampons are not recommended for first use ... try them maybe 6-12 months from now.) Then peel the wax paper off and throw away, and stick it on your underwear.... It's really easy. Change the pad every 3 to 4 hours. Well good luck with your period ... it's a pain in the butt but you'll get by. Hope I helped!

Use toilet roll and go out and buy some sanitary towels, then use the sanitary towels with clean underwear. Also, spray lots of deodrant on your clothes so you don't smell. But don't be scared, it's natural. A best tip would be to talk to your mother - she's been through exactly the same thing herself.

If you can´t get a pad now use toilet paper..... have your little meeting with the REP and...... tell your mum when you see her.
Have a nice day!

don't panic, it's nothing to be worried about. it might seem awkward, but tell your mum. she can go out and buy you pads and maybe some midol or something if you need it. you have my sympathies, because having your period sucks. but, congratulations=) good luck love=)

Yellow on your knickers is subjective. If it really is brownish yellow then convinced yet yellow discharge sounds infectious. once you era is over verify you dont see this nastiness on your drawers.
