Question
I am fourteen years old and i have not had my period yet. earlier today i began to have brown and a little bloody discharge coming out of my vagina. i dont know what it is and i really freaked out. please tell me what it is!
Answer
Chances are good it is your first period - congratulations! Put in a sanitary pad, and change it every few hours and keep track on a calendar to see if it happens again in about 28 days!
