sadie asked in HealthWomen's Health · 7 years ago

am I going to get my period when my sister does?

ok i'm 13 and i have a lot of period signs like a lot of white discharge, cramps, cravings, mood swings... but my sister is 15 and still hasn't had it yet. i don't know if she's had signs i dont really want to ask... but i know my mom had hers around my age or 14. is it possible that i get my period before my sister does or is it normal for me to get it around the age that she does? thanks!

    The age of menarche is not inherited from your mother. And your sister's period does not have anything to do with your period.

    Everybody's body is different you may get your period now or later that doesn't depend on when your mom got it or when your sister is getting it
