The first period may occur from 9 to 14 years, while in some rarer cases, it can occur even at the age of 16.

So how can you tell when the time comes?

Firstly, your body will change!

• You will get taller
• Your breasts will grow
• Your hips and waist will acquire feminine curves
• You will have hair growing on your legs, underarms and sensitive area
• You start to notice some vaginal discharges in your underwear

Your psychology also changes:

• You often feel conflicting emotions (anxiety or embarrassment on one hand, passion and enthusiasm on the other)
• You begin to have insecurities about your body
• You become more sensitive
• You get more easily upset and irritated
• You think no one understands you
• You start discovering your first sexual feelings

So it is good to be prepared!
