Question

Answer 1

yes you can get your period at age 10.
it means your pre-mature.

most get it around 11 or 12.
but getting it at 10 is fine too.


getting it all depends on.
if your bigger you will get it earlier.
and it also depends on your genes.
if your mom had it at 10 you could be the same way.



and congratulations sweety !

Yeah 10 year olds can have their periods sure its a young age but it is very possible. I dont think your weight takes much part in this but thats a possibility too. People just say you need to see a doctor because it might be something serious but not really. Ask your mom or something dont bother going to a doctor. Hope I helped

Answer 3

Yes. I was 10 when I started my period. It doesn't always have to do with a girl's weight. When you start your period is a good time to start seeing the gynecologist. You will probably go every year after that. But starting your period at 10 is not cause for alarm.

Answer 4

Yes you can be 10 and have your period. You just started early. Many times chubby girls start earlier for some reason but just because your not chubby doesn't mean you can't. The next time you are at the doctor you might just want to mention it to make sure you don't have some type of hormone issue but most likely you are just an early bloomer.

Answer 5

i am 13 now and i had my period when i was 10. i always developed faster then the other kids. dont have to be chubby at all to get ur period but when ur body is heavy enough(its different for different people) thats when ur period can come. some people can be underweight and get their period cuz its right 4 their body(this happened to my friend) i was 103 pounds and my friend was 88 pounds. u are just developing faster then other kids are which means u will also get breasts and curves faster too. thats just how i was.

Answer 6

Yes, you can have your period at 10. I got my period at 9 and so did my sister. Both of us where very developed at 9. We had curves and we had breasts. If you feel uncomfortable talk to your mom or a female you trust. It can be rough getting your period so early.

Answer 7

Don't worry! It's normal! You can have your period from 9 to 16 years old. ok? You don't need to go to a doctor. Sorry if i made some mistakes....i'm italian.

Answer 8

i started my period when I was eight. This isnt typically normal but you will be fine. I had already started to develop boobs and I was not overweight. My doctor told my mother that this was just called early development and not too worry. I am now twenty one and I am perfectly healthy and fine.

Answer 9

JAJAJAJAJAJAJA U shouldn't take the newborn 2 the well being center it is going to basically scare her that a physician has to work out and touch her deepest section :-( 10 is somewhat a common age u shouldn't concern some ladies get it youthful than others considered one of my acquaintances have been given it while she replaced into 8 and yet another one while she replaced into 13 u cant extremely say there's a age the place your 1st era is meant 2 come ( i propose in case you get it while ur like 5 or 6, U could desire to work out a physician) Like i replaced into announcing 10 is a common age and likewise it ability she will improve somewhat quicker than maximum women yet i strongly suggestion you do not take her 2 the surgeon like i stated previously it is going to scare her and he or she will fell uncomfortable that some one she does not be attentive to has to work out her deepest desire it helps :) Oh and congratulations 2 ur granddaughter

Answer 10

Yes, don't worry this is defiantly normal! This age is becoming more and more normal. I started when I was 11 and I'm now 14.
