Don't be embarrassed. All of us females have gone (or will go) through this. It is a natural part of growing up. If you cannot talk to your mother about what is happening to you, perhaps you have a friend or can read on line. The most important thing at this point is getting you some products. Go down stairs, whether she says what meanly or not & say "Mom, I started my period. Do you have anything I can use?" That will get you what you need. If she is willing to talk to you she will ask if you want to know anything. Don't be shy. Ask her everything you are concerned about. If she doesn't want to talk about it, she will just get you some products. If she tries to give you tampons, tell her you don't know how to use them & would be more comfortable with pads. If she has to go to the store to buy products, tell her before she leaves that you would rather have pads....unless, of course, you DO know how to use tampons & want them. Good luck. It is just one of those girl things.

Answer 3

I am so sorry your Mom is mean to you. Is she having a bad day or is she like this all the time?
Go try and tell her again, if she is mean again. Do you have a GrandMother or Aunt or maybe a big Sister? Just tell someone you need to get to the store and buy the necessary things to take care of yourself. Good Luck

Answer 4

I'm sorry you're scared. If your mom says "What?" just be very humble and explain to her that you think you've started your period. I suspect she'll change her attitude and help you. Don't worry about the hair. You don't have to show it to anyone, but it's very common to have it there.

Starting your period is really not that big of a deal. Just wipe off the blood and use a pad.

Answer 5

Wow. Mom shouldn't be mean for no reason, and I know that that is another whole issue, but you really need to tell her about herself. Also. if you are just starting your period then chances are you are very young. You are going to need some one to buy tampons or pads for you, so you may need to just tell her. Aww, your growing up!!!! You are going to need to tell someone that can explain to you how to take care of your self, and how to maintain a clean hygiene. Any way, good luck, (not sure if that's the right choice of words).

Answer 6

Just say, "mom can you get me some pads, I started my period" and just walk away. Or if she asks questions, stay and answer.
And until she gets your products, you might want to put toilet paper folded down on your panties so your undies will be kept clean.
And dont be embarrassed. Every girl has gone through it. And she doesnt have to look at your private area, so dont be embarassed about hair. Just make sure you get your products, maybe some advil, and a HUGE chocolate bar =D

Answer 7

Just tell her you got your period. I know it's embarrassing, but it could be worse, right?

You COULD just ignore it and hope it goes away.. but it won't. And then the next day at school, you could end up in the nurse's office covered in blood. Then the nurse will call home for you and your mom will have to bring you clean clothes.... Umm.. yeah.. don't do what I did. But that was 15 years ago and I can at least laugh about it now.

Answer 8

Maybe if you are really nervous about talking to her, write her a note and leave it somewhere where you know she'll find it but no one else will.

But, that's not really what I recommend. I say just talk to her or another trusted adult like an aunt or grandmother. You are going to have to tell SOMEONE, so you might as well just blurt it out.

As much as you don't want to tell her, she IS your mother and should know about this. I totally understand where you are coming from, but the longer it takes for you to tell her, the harder it's going to be.

I wish you the best of luck and hope that you figure this out.

Answer 9

Gee, my mom had given me the talk about a year before it happened. She had this box of supplies and a couple of books and so forth. I was kind of excited when I discovered I'd started and I told her right away. I'm sorry it's not that easy for you. Must try to find her at the times that she's happiest or least angry and tell her. Really, it's not like either of you can change it.

Answer 10

You are just going to have to tell her if there aren't any supplies around for you to use.
If there is, go ahead and use them and then go talk to your Mom.
Just go up to her, when she's not busy and say, Mom, I have to tell you something that's private. She will listen and I bet she won't be mean.
Sometimes us Moms don't mean to sound mad, but if we are frustrated with something else we can react harshly when we talk to our family.
And, no reason to be ashamed. Every female on the face of the earth has periods. It's a natural process. Congrats on growing up!

Answer 11

Pubic hair is natural, so dont be embarrassed. Just sit down with your mom and tell youve gotten your period. She will have alot of useful information about the cycle and whatnot, so dont hesitate. If you still dont have enough courage, talk to your nurse, but i dont think your mother would be mean to you about getting your period. Good Luck!
