Question

When do most girls have their first period?

Answer 1

i'm a nurse of 13 years. usually, 12-13 years old but i have heard of sooner.It really depends on the person. If you start a little earlier than "normal" i don't think it is something to worry about but if you haven't started by age 14-15 you should probably see a GYN.

Answer 2

It is normal for it to begin anywhere between the ages of 8 and 13. A good way to judge timing is that it most often starts about 2 years after a girl begins to develop breasts.

Answer 3

I think girls usually start any where from the age of 11-12.

Answer 4

That is a really open question since every girl is a little different. I have heard of girls as young as 12 and as old as 15-16 yrs.

Answer 5

i started mine at 8, which is quite early. most girls start at around 10-12

Answer 6

seventh grade for caucasians and fifth grade for Afro-American
