is it normal to skip a period
Even though it's normal to skip a period every once in a while, if you've had unprotected sex (sex without a condom or birth control) and missed your period, take a pregnancy test. If your period is so heavy that you have to change maxi pads or super tampons every hour, see a doctor.here's no way to know exactly when you'll get your first period. One day, you'll begin to bleed from your vagina, and that's your period. It means that your body is healthy and normal. Most girls have their first period when they're between 9 and 15 years old.
