yes it very well could be your period. you know i was scared when i first got my period too. i was like what the heck is happening with my body? ! but it all turned out all right. and it will turn out all right for you too. can you talk to your mom about this? what about an older sister aunt cousin or friend? talking about this stuff with other girls can really help a lot. if you don't feel comfortable going to a family member for advice why not stop by the school nurse's office? she will be happy to give you information and guidance on what to do. on the practical side you should prepare yourself in case it is your period and it happens while you're in school. put a few maxi pads in your purse or backpack so you can change them throughout the day. with pads you only need to change them every few hours or if they get really saturated (wet). just wrap the used one in some toilet paper and toss it in the receptacle. you'll get the hang of it. don't be afraid of your period. nothing in the world could be more natural. wishing you well!
yesterday i got brown discharge in my underwear. i'm scared that it is going to happen again today. is this my period?
