You mean, for the first time? You don't know in advance, you will know when it comes.\nOnce you start having regular periods, just count days from the beginning of one period to the beginning of another for several months. The number of days will be around the same. Then you can look at your calendar and estimate the date of your next period.

It sounds like one of two things to me... Your period might actually implantaion bleeding (it happens about five days or so after conception. it's when the egg burrows into the uturin wall) Or you could have Anemia... Take a pregnancy test, in the mean time eat a little more food than you normally do. Then go see a doctor either way!

Without more information, there is no way to know.  A woman ovulates about 2 weeks (usually 12-16 days) before her *next* period.  Sperm can live in the female body up to 5 days.  So it depends on how long her cycle is and how long her period is.  If today was day 5 of her cycle, then as long as her cycles are at least 27 days long, you're probably fine.  If today was day 9 of her cycle, then if her cycles are at least 31 days long, she probably wasn't fertile.\n\nCycles are frequently longer than expected, but rarely shorter.  So if she hasn't had a cycle that is shorter than the above numbers, she is *probably* not capable of getting pregnant.  But there are no absolute guarantees.\n\nPlease read _Taking Charge of Your Fertility_ by Toni Weschler for a detailed explanation of how the female body works.

In order for the birth control to be fully effective, you have to put on the new patch 7 days after you took off the last one for your "off" week, regardless of when your period started and how long it lasted, otherwise there is a chance that you could ovulate.\nOn average, your period probably should be only 3-5 days, this is normal. It may be that your period starts late in the off week and continues shortly into your next "on" week. ( I change my patch on Sundays, and my period usually doesn't start until the following Thursday, and lasts until the following Monday, after I've put the next patch on.) This is individual for each person, depending on how your body reacts to the hormones.\nThat said, if your period doesn't start at all, especially if it happens two cycles in a row, I wouldn't panic, but you should talk to your doctor ASAP.

If it is coming from your vagina then its your period..you period is supposed to last only about 4 days and then start again every month

you are getting unnecessarily worried because 2-5 days variation in the periods is not important. cycle is considered normal when periods take place between 21-35 days and last for 3-5 days. If you are not having any Other medical problem and not taking any drug, there is nothing to worry.

It really depends on your body.  Some people have really irregular periods all the time (like me) so you can never really know when they will come.  So sorry, but I'd just be ready at your normal time but know that it will probably be later.

hormonal imbalance... this usually takes place before or after your monthly period... this is natural.. some women experience this while some others don't.

Menstrual cycle depends on individual body mechanism, some are 22days(short menstrual cycle) some are 28days - 30days (normal cycle) some are 32days or more (long menstrual cycle) and some have thei period after 2 or 3months (irregular cycle), since its only 13th today and lastmonth is your first menstruation, I recomend that you have to record your menstrual date period as it come for atleast 6months , so you will know if you are having a normal,short,or long cycle or even an irregular menstrual cycle..

Do you mean that you had a cycle that is 14 days long?  If you are a teenager or in your 40s (sometimes even your 30s), it might be normal.\n\nOtherwise, it is more likely that one of the "periods" was really bleeding associated with ovulation, which takes place about 2 weeks before your next period.\n\nPlease read _Taking Charge of Your Fertility_ by Toni Weschler; it will help you determine what is happening.

Sometimes your breasts will get swollen or a little sore, sometimes you feel a little bloated like overnight you gained 5 pounds, you may feel a little sadder around that time or mad. Most times I break out in a little acne too. For me, I get these symptoms about 4-5 days before my period.  Then it starts and my breasts get better.

i always have that for a few hours to 1 day before regular flow of my period but 6 days seems too much are you on birth control because i had that for 4 weeks once when i was on depo. it might be hormonal or it could be something serious so if it's not hormonal go to the clinic.

You're still very young, your period is bound to be irregular. You also should remember that periods don't occur on exact monthly intervals, rather on 28 day intervals, so each month it will be a couple of days earlier. (April 15 then May 12, for example).

Congratulations on getting your period. It usually last up to 7 days. The premenstrual symptoms last a few days before your period.  It is good to learn to keep a calendar so you know when you are bloating. Day 1 is your period, and pms is usually day 21. Dont have sex at 11, and no birth control medicine. Respect your health so no medicine is needed.  It is best to have hobbies to prepare for life ahead, and finish school. Blessings!

Well if you got your period,then you aren't pregnant dear. The menstrual cycle is never really predictable,they just happen to say 28 days because its the average amount of time to wait. Don't spazz.
