I can't remember my first one, however I do remember being mortified when my mom found out about it!

11 years , I was with my dad and my stepmother eho had a terrible migranie , that is why I didnt learn to put a pad right .The next day at school I stained my seat . My girl friends knewwhat happened, but I was one of the first to have it , and the boys belived that I broke a red pen , so everything better than expected.

I was on vacation with a lot of my guy cousins and it was embarrassing because the toilet was clogged in the hotel and then I got it all bloody so I had to keep people away from the bathroom. But this past Christmas (about two year later) I had my first real cramps and they left me unable to move and puking because I had used scented pads and they messed me up. Haha live and learn

Haha, i was at school and i didn't know what it was and when my mom told me, i started crying.

My first period is in my 10th age and it is so bloody

My first period was when i was 13 yrs only... At nyt my parents found out about it when they saw blood stains.. It was indeed unbelievable thing for me... A thing never heard of before... It was not acceptable...

12 years old, I got during school, I didn't have any pads or anything, bled through my underwear dress and onto the chair, completely mortified and totally clueless as to how to sort it out, tied a jumper around my waist and threw out my fave pair of underwear

I was at camp (11yrs) and woke up with a bloody underwear. I didnt fricken know what was going on. I called my mum and she gave me the talk... Then braught me some pads.

I was 14 something and I was more then miserable, I was in pain and hated to hit puberty, I just wanted to stay a kid

I was 11 and not ready for periods and I got can't-stand doubled-over horrible cramps during class but I was the person that was like "GOT TO DO MY WORK. CAN'T DIE UNTIL MY WORK IS DONE" so I dealt with it. When I got home I started bleeding and it was pretty heavy and my mom wasn't prepared for me to have a period, especially a really heavy period, so I was kind of dying. Then, on the first day of my first period, I had a dance recital. The entire time I'm worried things are going to shift and I'll get blood all over my outfit.

Then, two weeks later, I had another period. The doctors are like "you'll be irregular" so I didn't do anything about it until it was clear my period cycle was pretty consistently two weeks long. Then I had to take hormones to decrease my periods because apparently I had an unnatural amount of testosterone for a female (testosterone is the main hormone women have on their periods, even though they normally have a lot of estrogen and progesterone). But I'm good now.
