    Hey, so in the video you mentioned that it’s normal for girls to get their periods at 11. I’m almost 13 and I’m not sure if that’s something I should be worried about because all the other women in my family started at 11 to 12. I also know that a year after you start getting discharge you should get your period, but I’ve had discharge for 2 years and still nothing. Do you have any advice or idea why?
