I'm just wondering. I recently got my first period. If I'm regular my second one should come any day now. I'm probably not though since I just started. Here is my question, or well questions.

If everyone else in your family is regular, are you more likely to be regular? Does weight effect it? Not gaining or losing a lot, but if you're thin are you not as regular than if you're heavier? And if you're not regular what should be done to avoid ruining your underpants when it comes?

  1. it shoudl come monthly.


  2. ok, here goes: you are more likely to be regular, but it does not mean you have to. most of us are, however, regular, so you probably will be to. just not in the first year or so. losing weight affects your period, but the other way... well, obese girls sometimes have PCOS, a syndrome that influences the period, but it is not necessarily so. the syndrome also makes you more of a candidate to become obese. however, approximately the same number of under/overweight women have problems with regularity of their period.

    in time, you learn to feel if something happens in the area, you feel that your period has come. most girls, even tough the period isn t regular, have signs a few days before it comes, like cramps, headache... well, it depends on the person.

  3. I'll TRY to help, but I probably know as much as you...I got my 1st period about 3 weeks ago, so my second should come in about a week.

    If your family is regular, then it SHOULD give you an advantage of being regular.  I think weight does affect it..if you arfe skinnier, then sometimes your body thinks you're not able to carry a baby at that time, and your period might not come for some time.  (i'm pretty skinny, so i'm wondering if mine will come too.)  You can try wearing pantyliners until your second period comes.  You can keep them on all day, it's like the same as your underwear.  They make like boxes of 40 of them or something, and i think they are pretty cheap.  

    If it helps you, I asked a question similar to this one last night, and got some good answers.  You can read it and see if it helps any.
