It can be hard to open up about our bodies, especially when we get our first period. Things like: what is a period? at what age do girls get their first period? what are the signs that it is coming? You'll find your answer in this video. Visit https://www.always.co.uk/engb/tipsa... to learn more.

Your period is a few days every month when you begin to shed tissue, fluid and blood through your vagina. It’s also called menstruation. Your menstrual cycle is the time between the first day of one period and the first day of the next. Usually, this takes 28 days, but it could be anywhere between 24 and 35 days. Then the cycle starts again. A period can last between 3 to 7 days, and it can come in different shades of red or brown.

You’re most likely to get your first period between the ages of 10 and 16. Your period will start when your body is ready. If it hasn’t started by the time you turn 16, it might be a good idea to talk to a doctor.
