Cuestionario: ¿Cuándo tendré mi primera menstruación?

About periods

As you approach your teenage years, you probably wonder when your periods might start. You may look forward to this moment as a sign that you are really growing up. You may also be nervous about how they will feel, or how you might manage their period. Either way, it can be good to know whether you are likely to get your period soon.

With periods usually starting between the ages of 10-16 years, it can be hard to predict when your first period will arrive. However, your body will probably start to show some tell-tale signs when your first period is on its way. These signs include:

• Your breasts may grow or change shape.

• You may have vaginal discharge.

• You may grow pubic and underarm hair.

The quiz is designed for girls aged over the age of 8 years who have not yet started their periods, but who have started to show some signs of puberty. It asks seven simple questions relating to changes in your body that might indicate your period is on its way.

Each time you select an answer you will be given some information about the symptoms you are feeling and what they might mean. At the end, your result will show whether your first period might be on its way.
