Ok, being that your only 11, that is definitely a very good chance that's what that means. When you are about to start for the first time, you will do what is called "discharging". This is perfectly normal and something that SHOULD happen. Its your body cleaning it self and getting ready for the actual period to start. If what comes out of you-know-where has any different color(greenish or yellowish) then you might want to let your doctor know. But if its like a darker color(brownish or redish) then you should wait it out and see what happens. But the "discharge" is very OK.

MOST girls have discharge (The white, foamy, sticky stuff) for at least a year before they get their periods, so it will probably still be awhile before you get it.

Yes that's a sure sign that you are about to begin your periods. And 11 isnt all that young either I was 10. Just be prepared when it does happen.

You should be expecting it soon, but none of us can tell you exactly when.
It sounds to me that you're excited about it!
Well :) It's a big step going in from Girl to Woman.
Just remember it's not all fun and games with your period. You will not love it lol so enjoy your none period-ness while ya can :)

Go to your Doctor, nothing should ever be foamy. Sounds like an infection.
Good luck

This can be a sign of a yeast infection - especially if you have any itching down there.
Getting your period would have color to it.
Honey, don't worry about getting your period - it will happen when it should and don't wish it to come too soon. I first got mine when I was 11 but I know girls who started it younger and older. Your body knows what's right for it.

we dont know when you will get it. but usually the white discharge comes about a year before you get your period. but you are only 11 so you shouldnt be worrying about it yet

i would talk to your mom and have her make you a doctors appointment. it sounds live you could have a yeast infection which is no big deal. they will just give you cream or pills. And its about time your doctor discusses you period and what to expect with you. but really, if you can talk to your mother if not an aunt or school counselor could probably help. Good Luck and God Bless.
