YOUR BOD | PERIODS, PERIOD | GETTING STARTED

Do you need to see a gynecologist?

 
Find out now…

Lotsa girls are wary of the gyno. But Dr. Endrika Hinton, a gynecologist at Greater Baltimore Medical Center, says, “You can see a gynecologist any time you’re having problems, but go on a routine basis starting at age 16. This doesn’t mean you have to have a pelvic exam, especially if you are not sexually active.”

So do you need to go? If you answer yes to one or more of these questions, it’s time to make an appointment.

Are you having sex or thinking about it?

Are you over 16 and don’t have your period?

Is your period preventing you from doing what you want to do (super-painful, too heavy, etc.)?

Have you missed your period for more than four months in a row?

Do you have symptoms that could mean a vaginal infection (itching, off-color discharge, odor, etc.)?

Have stuff you want to discuss with a gyno?

MODMODMODMODMODMODMODMODMODMODMODMODMODMOMODMODMODMODMODMOD Is it possible to NOT have your period? And when does your period stop? My sisters both had their periods around 11-12 years old, and I am almost 12, should I expect it?

 

 

Hey girl. Your period can come at anytime, but if it doesn't come by 16 then you should see a doc. It is possible to have very irregular periods, but healthy women have them. Your period will stop somewhere after you are 45-50 years old.

Ugh I am one of the only three girls in my grade who does not have boobs. Literally everyone else has boobs and you are probably wondering how I know this, but it's like everyone else does and you began to realize it. People have told me I had a pretty face but I'm flat so thats why guys don't go out with me. And I know this is true.
Why don't I have boobs ? My mom and sister got boobs at twelve and thirteen, and I'm turning thirteen in April. Why me ?

 

Hey girlie. If guys are dating you because of your boob size, then trust me, those are not the boys you want to be dating anyway. Is you physical appearance the only thing that matters? Absolutely not! You want someone who likes you for you. Your personality, your thoughts, your morals and values--that is what matters. Trust me, I understand. I have never had big boobs but honestly, I've always liked having small boobs. Girls with bigger boobs have to deal with so many inappropriate comments from boys and have to worry that guys are only attracted to boobs than them. So flaunt what you have--LOVE YOUR BODY. There is nothing more beautiful than the belief that you are beautiful. Some things you cannot change so you just go with it. Confidence is key. ; )

MODMODMOD! What do they do during a pelvic exam? How do you put in a tampon. Doesn't it hurt sticking it up there? Also, when will I get my period? Ive been having discharge since February, not really having bad acne, and im starting tog get bigger boobs where theres a bump under the breast. Plz help! When will I get my period?




Hey girlie, for tampon advice go here http://www.girlslife.com/post/2010/10/08/How-To-Use-Tampon.aspx. There's no way to tell when you'll get your period so if you think you're having signs just be prepared. During a pelvic exam they just take a few swabs and check to make sure everything looks okay down there. They're uncomfortable, but they're quick and painless.
